    • About Me

      My photo is one of those Quick cam things sorry. I found this site because of a broken heart. Its healed nicely now and I've moved on. Thanks to all those who where there for me. I have Chiari Malformation (Arnold-Chiari)and I'm also Bi-Polar. The great thing is my bi-polar condition is under control. I sometimes wonder if the Chiari didn't cause the bi-polar ?

    • Open Smoking Addiction & Recovery

      I'm 46 years old and smoked at least 30 of those years. I'm a hardcore (I'm smoking as I write this)addict and get buggy after an hour without a cig. I take no pleasure in being like this. I hate being a slave, having the smell on my hair and clothing or money this habit is costing I could spend elsewhere. After spending all night in an ER with my daughter without a cig. and not clawing my eyes out I have a little hope that I may just be able to quit with the proper support.
