    • Open Smoking Addiction & Recovery

      I smoked my last cigarette September 21, 2006. It has not been easy. I feel like sometimes I have lost my best friend because I enjoyed smoking so much. But I can tell I have more energy and can do alot more than I could a year ago. I keep telling myself I've gone too long without one to start back now. Besides, my kids would kill me if I started back.

    • Open Other Heart Problems

      I was admitted in the hospital in Sept. 2006 with chest pains. They found a mass inside my heart. Doctors still have no clue what it is. At times my heart beats too fast, but at times it beats way to slow, and it skips every third beat, so they can't prescribe meds.

    • Open Multiple Sclerosis (MS)

      I have a 41yo. brother that has MS. He refuses to take the meds for it. But he works everyday. He is of course not as fast as he used to be. The heat really slows him down more in the summer.
