Hazel visited the Yorkshire Smokefree service in Thorne, Doncaster back in May and has not touched a cigarette ever since! This is her story, in her own words.
“My name is Hazel, I’m married with 3 children, 4 grandchildren and 2 great grandchildren and I have lived in Thorne since 1968. I started smoking when I was 15 years old and I smoked for years, up until I was told by my doctor at Doncaster Hospital that if I didn’t stop smoking straight away, I would have to have my leg cut off below the knee. From there, I got the number for Yorkshire Smokefree, I phoned them on the 19th May and a week later, I had my appointment. I’ve not had a cigarette since. So anybody out there, if you want help to stop smoking, get the number and just phone up like I did. I gave my tobacco paper and tips to my son and believe it or not, I feel a whole lot better. No more cravings, nothing. I eat more now and the only thing I’m craving is chocolate.”
