I,m Back

[grundig]

Yep I,m a smoker ,,,not much now though.
Went from almost a pack of day to about 5 cigg,s now.
Was commited to quiting altogether before I got injured,this will make the process go faster.
It,s not the cost of tobacco,It,s i,m getting older,I,m not planning on cashing in my chips soon.

Sorry to hear you haven't been well. Hope the surgery is a go now, and you will soon be on the road to a full recovery! Good luck on the quitting smoking. If you can get down to 5 cigs a day you've made a huge accomplishment and should be able to quit no prob. I went cold turkey 30 years ago, and haven't looked back. I started smoking at 8 years old. Ugh!!!! It took my husband a little longer to quit. Take care and keep us posted on your surgery and recovery process.

Grundig,
Sorry to hear that you have been so sick.  Hope you get feeling better real soon.  You need to be completely free from this illness before considering surgery.  My prayers go out to you for a speedy recovery.
Get Well Soon........Take care!

Cajun Hugsssssss,

Sorry to hear about the pneumonia. Maybe your body was telling you it wasn't ready for the BIG ONE just yet. Drink ALOT of FLUIDS and get ALOT of REST!

Hope you feel better grundig-------being sick on top of having to go through surgery is not a good thing- Get better first--- hugs for a speedy recovery and successful surgery.

Good morning grundig.......so sorry all this is going on. Having asthma i know the toll anesthesia and surgery can have on the lungs and pneumonia being bacterial you'll need time to heal. I went into this last surgery a picture of health except for the injuries and I'll tell you 3 weeks later it has still whipped my butt. As far as the smoking goes I have quit 5 times. My last one I was doing great until injured. Went back to a pack a day and now have it down to a few again. Maybe when all comes to be we'll support each other in this quit. Best of luck and good health. Keep us updated.

Wink..........Love your dancing girl. You are too funny.

I hope you feel better soon Grundig!! Get those lungs strong and be well rested before your surgery, and I hope the Surgeons hands are steady, and your recovery is quick!!

Hey there Grundig.  Sure sorry to hear that you are sick.  Hopefully all will be better soon and you will get the needed surgery.  I had an awful cold about a week before my surgery date and they told me that I needed to be over the cold before they would do the surgery.  Turns out by the time we got pre-authorization from the IC and then set the date for the surgery, all was cleared up except for a little cough.  The anesthesiologist said ok so we did the surgery last week.  Still have a little cough (yep I smoke too ).  I also lost my voice due to the tube they put down my throat and am just now starting to get it back.

I really wish you well in your surgery and please keep us posted.

Prayers to you,
Deb

Hi Grundig,

They will do no surgery until yours lungs xray clear, clear, clear. This is only for your benefit. Sorry you got sick, but maybe your stars were not in line, and you weren't suppose to have surgery on the day you anticipated for a reason...when all is well & safe for you, it will proceed.
Take care in the mean time, prayers to you too! Lilly
