Have not posted here in a long time. Life has thrown me some curve balls.
To those that have sent me birthday wishes or other messages, I apologise for not responding.
Have had 2 medical issues.
1 Arotal abdominal anyerisim
2 Bladder cancer
Both have been addressed and are being monitored by my doctors. So far so good.
The best thing to come from this is I finaly quit smoking. 1 year so far and feeling great.
Just wanted to let you know.

Good luck, Betty! They found I had bladder cancer 5+ years ago. So far the treatments have been working, and my life's pretty much normal.:)

I hope u have the same experience!:thumbsup:

Betty, wonderful news all around. Each day is a blessing. It takes a lot of courage to give up smoking! Bravo! If ever you get the urge, do SOMETHING other than smoke. Those times will come.

So proud that you're fighting the good fight and winning! The hardest habit I ever broke was smoking...and the one I'm most proud of...in June I will be 11 years completely tobacco free. Keep up the good work!
Hugs! Shawna

Thank all of you for your kind words.
Went for a follow up on the anyerisim surgery on Monday. Doctor is pleased and said it looks good.
My last smoke was in the first week of September of 2022. So, that problem seems to be solved.
