I was first referred to Yorkshire Smokefree Wakefield via a Practice Nurse from Castleford Health Centre. Smoking had always been a part of my life, and I was brought up around it thus starting to smoke myself at the age of 12!
In recent years I’ve been back and forth to hospital with pneumonia and recurrent chest infections.
I am housebound and my advisor suggested telephone appointments with home visits where necessary adapting to my requirements with carbon monoxide readings at 4, 8, and 12 weeks. I'm now happy to be called an ex-smoker!
The hospital admissions have stopped and now that I don’t have to smoke, I get longer uninterrupted cuddles with my grandson.
