Congratulations Mom!

After 25+ years of smoking my mom has finally quit! I am so proud of her! She looks better, feels better, and is really proud of herself. Last year she bought a brand new car and wanted to keep it nice and smoke free so she stopped smoking while driving, then instead of taking a smoke break at work she would go walk around the building. Eventually she stopped smoking at home too and now she is done! She had a bit of help with a medication (not sure what it is called) that works like an appetite suppresant, but she says she feels great and is never going back! Now she is trying to get the smoke smell out of the house and is buying new clothes that don’t stink! She was buying a new purse and the cashier commented that it was a cute purse. My mom told her that she needed a new one because she stopped smoking and her old one smelled like smoke. The cashier came around and gave my mom a hug and told her congratulations. She proceeded to tell her that her own mother died from lung cancer as a result of being a smoker her whole life. My mom is really touched and suprised that so many people are so happy for her. I for one think it is the most wonderful thing that has happened in the whole world! Yea Mom! I love you!
