Just to let those who thought I'd run away or summit that Im back online. The power supply unit decided enough was enough and £30 later Ian and I are finally back with the living(as well as the dead!!). Have for my sins given up smoking now for 3 days so its been a unlivable week with no pc and no fags lol. Still fingers crossed pc will be ok now for awhile and I keep off the fags so the money I will save will buy the next power pack burnt out by too many nights on Gc. Chat soon I hope, Best wishes to all Debbi xx |

I had a awful holiday in some respects as on the thursday before I went I had pluerisy, off to holiday in St leonards on Monday, Tuesday had to see a doc feeling dreadful, had pnuemonia and son had bronchitus. Came back Saturday and the pc packed up.Son finished steroids and antibiotics on Monday and by Tuesday was so ill he had to go back on steroids!! I still had chest pain so saw doc Thursday and had to have xray and 3rd course of antibiotics hebce the giving up smoking But I managed to struggle to Battle and Rye with Ian and Shay, just I sat down a lot!! Still enjoyed it just not as much as if Id been well. So now you know Dumpling lol bet you wish you hadnt asked |

Debbi, keep off those fags - don't go back 'in prison'! You will find its the best thing you have ever done! Gave up 1 year 2 months ago and yes its hard, but I can enjoy my life now without worrying when/where I will have my next fix - plus my life is likely to be longer now! Hope you are soon feeling the benefits - happy to help with encouragement and advice anytime. Also see the 'non-smoking club' thread by Lynda Pace. Maz. XX |

Thank you all for your good wishes and support...still havnt had a relapse on the ciggies but know the worse is to come over the next few days. I wont be venturing far at the moment as I really am still not up to full health Jill but hopefully I will make it to you in the not too distant future(car/money/health allowing). Debbi xx |
