Sigh. Anyway, he's been chewing nicotine gum. He claims it works. I still think that no matter what, it's better than smoking. I'm resorting to accept TFM's chewing tobacco instead of smoking because he's not coughing at night now. It's been a couple of weeks since he's quit smoking and I'm not awake at night, scared, wondering if he's gonna take a breath. He still snores, so I still have to resort to the couch, but no more gasping and coughing. Cigarettes are nasty, folks. Sorry. If you smoke and you're happy about it, smoke away. I'm just saying *I* quit - no problems - my hubby has quit, but is chewing tobacco. Whatever works. QUIT SMOKING. kili <-------- still drinking, however. |

Stop it! You're way too young to feel so unfullfilled. Sheldon |
