Since my last post, I have had a five-day stay in the ICU getting the first round of high-dose chemotherapy. The hospital is a nice place, but it is nowhere you want to be for sure. I started chemo on Friday, and figured it was going to be horrible, just like everyone had told me. I sat there waiting...


wow. your bravery and honesty are inspiring. by posting on a smoking site you add prospective and reality to we formers. it drives home the point that dangers lurk and that to continue to smoke would be disrepectful and ridiculous. i wish you all the luck in the world. never lose your non preachy, slightly ironic sense of humor
A reminder to shelve the self pity . . . what self pity? I didn't hear anything like that in Adams post. Just a brave young man telling all the details of his horrific experiences,
as a warning to everyone who is doing damage to their bodies with smoking . . . who could end up having the same results as he is experiencing now. The rest of your post was great. Just don't see the self pity.
