Thanks...the cold is gone but life has been difficult with the American economy being so bad and our health care system a disaster for people like me. We have a great health care for the rich..but the rest of us suffer.

Support Groups
Close Smoking Addiction & Recovery
I need to stop smoking. I want to be a healthy, active, reasonably slim over 60's. Instead of what I am, an unhealthy, inactive, very overweight over 60's. For me it's a vicious circle..The longer I smoke, the more I cough and wheeze. The more I cough and wheeze the less exercise I can do. The less exercise I do, the fatter I become. The fatter I become, the more depressed I get. The more depressed I get, the more I smoke. I had my last cigarette yesterday evening at 9pm. I need support.
Treatments
- Cold Turkey Working / Worked
- Gave up for 3 years, but succombed to peer pressure and started again.
Close Homelessness
Homeless once, near homeless twice. My blood boils when I'm told "nothing can be done"..It can! It takes, guts, hard work commitment and a big mouth!
