Again, I know all the doctors tell you to quit smoking. They have to. But, I loved to smoke.  I tried to quit, seriously, probably more than ten times. I’d been to two hypnotists (worked for a day or two)…Smoke Stoppers three times (worked for a week or two)… Zyban gave me an allergic reaction – no help there…Chantix gave me horrible hallucinations … can’t chew gum ... and the patches helped with some of the withdrawal symptoms (horrible dreams if I slept with a patch on). But nothing changed the fact that I WANTED TO SMOKE! Just how dumb is that?…

Will Peg quit cigarettes and recover her health, or will she continue to self-destruct? Watch for Part II, the conclusion of her story.
