Before this month ends, I should mention that this February marked four years since the last time my lung collapsed. Also, it’s been four years since I last smoked a cigarette. I’m quite proud of this, especially since I find myself still wanting one at least once a week. I still feel short of breath a lot, and still have odd pains that make me fear my lung will collapse again, but, like my cravings for a cigarette, I think those are things I’ll probably have to live with for a long time yet. Regardless, I feel healthier now than I ever have in my life, which is why I’m bothering to type this post. Yay me.
You look healthy and fit, too. Congrats on four years.
Thanks!
SO PROUD OF YOU!! And, yes, the cravings will subside in time; or bother you a lot less. Plus, at today’s prices, you can “chuckle all the way to the bank”!
Holy crap, it’s ridiculous how expensive cigarettes are now. I got out just in time. Actually, I wish I’d quit when I was 30. Oh well. Spilt milk, and all that.
Yay you indeed – congrats!
Thanks!
