Brotherhood By 30

My name is Dale and I am a failure.

I want to quit but can’t.

I hide from my family to get my fix

The fear of cancer consumes me, but it is not enough to get me to quit.

I think about how guilty I will feel if my family has to be put through the misery of watching me die, it is still not enough to make me quit.

I have acid reflux, receding gums and hypertension, but it is still not enough to make me quit.

I hate the idea that one of my children might learn this addiction from me, but it is not enough to make me quit.

I am too weak to quit

My name is Dale, I’m on day 1, looking forward to succeeding this time, not too confident in me.
Larry- either quit or don’t. You found us- must be you want to quit! You can do this
Ready – welcome -you got this!
J2b – I’ll watch out for you – here’s my number
Magnum – You better post, or I’ll hunt you down!

My name is Dale- I am not a failure. I am a quitter. 102 days in a row. And counting.

To those of you just starting out : Post Roll- first thing in your day, honor your promise, support your brothers and sisters, watch out over them, exchange numbers – It will make all of the difference in your quit.
