There were four cigs...I had two last night and two this morning...ick...but they're gone now...and you ladies were so right...I felt AWFUL...like I let myself down. The patch is back on and I WILL win this WAR!!!!

Much Love to all of you and I am so grateful that I have found you to help me thru this terrible fight.

xoxo Mae

ps...the stupid patch fell off again last night...as soon as I get in the heat it comes off...I tried to hold it...but ...well ...holding and driving don't really mix in high traffic.

I'm gonna try bandaids before I leave for work to hold it on til I get home...then vetwrap and DUCT TAPE!!!

He has to either have a by-pass os stints put in--He smoked for years..but quit 20 years ago..He is only 60.He smoked 3 packs a day..now he is paying for it.So sad...mel

**Aww Mel, I'm sorry to hear that. You just keep thinking how your quitting, healthy eating and exercise are going to keep you away from all that.

Sorry to hear about your father in law. Even more reason to make sure that now our loved ones Don't start this horrible habit of smoking. . . it's way too risky.

Hope the Docs can help him.
