Hi, my name is Cheryl, I don't post often these days, but I have found freedom from nicotine one day at a time since May 30, 2004 -- an unbelievable
almost two year journey.
I am at a difficult point in this journey today and need help. It is not nicotine that tempts me, but perhaps the wreckage of my past catching up to me.
I am a cancer survivor -- hodgkins lymphoma in remission since 96. I am a 42 year old wife and mother of two young girls.
In two days, I am having surgery on a tumor in my chest. I've known about it for over a year, it was benign at my last biopsy, but has grown since. I
am having surgery to remove a part of this tumor that is attached to the lower lobe of my left lung and my spine.
It may be cancer, it may not. Whatever it is, we shall soon find out, but the waiting really is the hardest part for me.
Any comfort anyone can offer would be appreciated. I'm scared.
Cheryl
