Please don't feel bad, it was years after my heart attack that I was able to finally win this battle. I had to break two ankles at one time, lose my job and have no one to care for me but a seventeen year old daughter. I was forced to change my life. Broken ankle number two had something to do with it too, I learned that smoking kept me from much needed surgery to repair the horrible break and I am on nine months of recovery now on that leg alone. Two hard casts, wheelchair for months and a boot that I'm still in.... Long time smokers, I was a two plus pack a day for 35 years are tough cookies. I think everyone has their own time when they are ready and truly, without this forum and e cigs I know I would still be smoking. Don't give up and don't down yourself, you will get there.
