It's so interesting to he...Great work Janine! <br /><br />It's so interesting to hear about the way you pushed your way through them tasting so bad at first - as a non-smoker who has had one puff on one cigarette once in my life (and it made me so sick I couldn't go out that night) that's always been the hardest part for me to understand! <br /><br />Enjoy your retreat and continue to push through the 'contraction cravings'. You obviously did it when you gave birth so for sure you can do it now! <br /><br />And thanks for giving Quit and Cancer Council Victoria the opportunity to work with you on this, and share your story with other wannabe quitters. <br /><br />Helen and Jess xHelen Marsdenhttp://www.quit.org.aunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-689086583798071258.post-60668279045511590202011-05-02T05:20:21.041-07:002011-05-02T05:20:21.041-07:00Hi janine.
I feel so srry we couldn't get you...Hi janine. <br />I feel so srry we couldn't get you to quit smoking once you started to live with our family- but as you say..., you were young and rebellious:) It hurt to see what you were doing to your health and youth starting to smoke so early, knowing it would get harder and harder for you over the years to quit.<br />So I'm very proud of you now and I really whish you all the strength, love and ,stamina and support you can get. <br />Tomorrow we'll go to Grietjes funeral, you knew here well and you know she died of cancer. I'm afraid smoking was partly the cause of her death. So besides all the reasons you can think of for not smoking, if the craving gets too hard- have a look at her picture and I hope you'll have the strength to stay away of them. <br /><br />We'll sent you love and support through the stars, since Grietje is now one of them. <br />Keep up!
