12 days and all is well

I thoroughly enjoyed my birthday celebrations yesterday, even though I had a bit too much to eat and drink, I didn't smoke and that's the best birthday gift I gave myself.  i never thought I could enjoy myself without those white cancer sticks, how wrong I was,  I'm suffering a bit with a bad chest but I guess that's par for the course at this stage, clearing out the gunk.  I do feel more alert though and my mouth doesn't feel like a dustbin and I feel cleaner. The lost feeling is disappearing too so all in I'm feeling pretty pleased with myself.

Hey Jean, was also thinking about how you got on and delighted to read it went so well for you!

Yeah, take the bad chest as a good sign that your lungs is clearing out (try vapourizing with vicks or eucalyptus to help lift it)

Keep up the good work and positive attitude....
