(((Deb))). Sorry that you are suffering through a very serious problem right now. Just remember that smoking will not make it any better, regardless of what else happens.
 
I will not smoke today. I hope and assume that you will not, either.

Hi  Deb . My thoughts are with you.
Please remember that no matter what that little voice in your head is telling you, having a smoke
Will Not change or make anything better.
Choose life.
Wishing you Strength and comfort in the days ahead.

Oh - I can feel your sadness all the way over here DebSoFlo.   Your news is devastating!  If you feel that 'screwing up ' your quit over your friend's health is haunting you, perhaps you can find a way to remember the best times of your lives together? Maybe that can relieve some of your stress response that triggers those craves. Or maybe; take deep breaths, suck on scotch mints, chew cinnamon toothpicks, read Alan Carr, come here and post your thoughts and feelings, write with your left hand (very distracting), call a friend who understands, give yourself a lovely bath and warm tea, be kind to yourself, get your rest when you can, enjoy that puppy :) and just try getting through it all one day at a time.  Sending virtual hugs & a big fluffy blanket to curl up in your way.  If you can remember H.A.L.T. and N.O.P.E. - that sure helps too.

i didn't smoke today!
 
i got very upsetting news yesterday.  a childhood friend who has been fighting adrenal cancer for 5 years has been diagnosed with a metastasized brain tumor.  if lucky she will live another 30 days.  when she passes i will be flying to new york... i am really really scared that i am gonna screw this up...  and it would be such a dishonor to her if i start smoking again.  i am a nervous wreck... it seems that since i quit smoking so much stressful crap has happened... aaaaaaaaaarrrrrrgggghhhhh - so upset right now :(
