Today Susan is celebrating four weeks of being completely smoke free and says she feels fantastic!
On her very first appointment with her stop smoking advisor she described her motivation for wanting to quit smoking was mainly for health reasons, but in her words, “I want to climb the stairs without having to sit on the bed because I am so out of breath”.
On speaking with Susan today, this is exactly what she has achieved!
With the help of nicotine patches, weekly telephone support and a very positive mindset she has easily managed to reach her goal. Susan has battled with lots of health conditions but considers herself to be “a fighter “and feels proud of herself for managing to quit. She now describes being able to smell aftershave and perfume and is really enjoying working on her allotment with renewed energy – along with her quit, Susan has also stopped drinking and swearing!
A great achievement, keep it going Susan… we are all so proud of you.
