Hello Joel, I just wanted to give you one more example of how you, your staff and all those on WhyQuit.com have helped me quit an addiction that one year ago I did not think was possible. I never joined , but spent so many hours on the message boards and educating myself on this wonderful website. Over the year I have seen so many accomplish this Gold milestone and without them I know I would not be writing this note.

One thing to reinforce education and support, no matter who you are.

I have been selling Chemotherapy drugs now for 6 years. Most of them are used in the late stages of metastatic lung cancer ( which as you know there is no cure and most patients present with Stage 4 ) Although seeing these patients daily with this horrific disease I could not rid myself of this addiction. I was so distraught and embarrassed. Could you imagine a medical oncologist ask you if you smoke because they could smell it on your clothes while at the same time your presenting data on how your drugs will only prolong there lung cancer patients lives by a few months? I needed help and I found it at WhyQuit .com.

Feel free to share, it does get better each and every day. I am so thankful

NTAP
