4 Years Smoke Free!

This past Saturday, I celebrated four years free of the addiction that once held me with chains that seemed stronger than steel. I was as die-hard a smoker as they come. Those people who know me well never thought they'd see the day that I would quit smoking. I didn't believe I could do it either, but I did, and today, I know without a shadow of a doubt that I will NEVER smoke cigarettes again.

Terry Martin's Quit Smoking Story
"When I started smoking cigarettes at the age of 19, I knew better. I knew it was a stupid decision. Unlike my folks who didn't understand the dangers of smoking when they started, I was fully aware. I knew it killed people, and I knew it was highly addictive. I was young and I thought I was invincible."

"I’m done with cigarettes. I know without a shadow of a doubt that I’ll never go back. How do I know? How can I be so sure? What if something really stressful happens? Isn't it at least possible that I might turn to cigarettes to soothe and help me through tough times? Nope. Not a chance."
