Good news for me an ex smoker. I had a stressful night in the ER with my mom.

She almost fell and was in just in case something had changed in her parkinsons. I thought of a cigarette at one point....but I didn't want to smoke it. I just though "it is at a time like this when I used to break my quits but I don't want to smoke now". I am cured.

2. She's fine. The doctors in the ER absolutely nailed the problem to one a occupational

therapist needs to fix. I love our public health care in Canada. For sure she will not 'almost fall' in that particular situation again. Which is important because something like 50% of seniors who fall and break a hip die within the next year.
