Hi Eileen,
I had to dig back a little ways to find your origonal msg so I could reply
to it...
I to am a newly recovering smoker. Those who know me are saying when did you
start again... (G) It was a little over a year ago that I picked up a Cigar
cause my daughter had a baby and That got me hooked again. Not right away
but it put the taste in my mouth.... and that was enough.
I had a triple bypass in 92 and of course gave up the cigs while in the
hospital. Quit for about 3 plus years.... Like I said, it got me again. It
took another bout in the hospital and a angioplasty to scare me into finally
quitting again.  Aug 25 or there abouts is my quit day and I'm here to tell
ya it's still rough. I quit drinking over 11 years ago and I think the cigs
are just as tough....
