After the blustery winds of the last two nights when I was not bothered to brave the King Lear-like storms and venture out for a walk - tonight was a very different story.
Left home at 7pm, walked for an hour with dog (Tina) and got back home at 8:00pm. Very still, calm night - Bay flat - visibility high, quite mild out.
I have been clean now for about 4 months also.
I had been having chest problems for about 4 months & not one Doctor could make a diagnosis untill I was rushed to hospital about a month ago.
It was only then that I found out I had Deep Vein Thrombosis & the Blood Clot in my lungs had been sitting there for the whole time.
The Docs at the hospital were quite amazed acctually, as a Lung Clot like the one I had is usually fatal within 48hrs, yet I survived with it in there for atleast 4 months befor it was correctly diagnosed...
I'm just lucky they caught it when they did, cause it had finally reached the point, where I didn't have too much longer to live "a couple of hours at best they said"
Heh, go figure... someone Up there must really like me....hehehe.
For some reasonthough, I just can't bring myself to sit infront of the Computer anymore & have ben getting in the habbit of "Just getting up & going off for a walk every couple of hours".
I still have a long way to go to completely recover,taking a heap of Anti-Clotting Drugs each day & having to whatch what I do to ensure I don't even get so much as a Paper Cut, but having given up the Cigggs, even now I feel so much better for it.

Hey PS - Good to hear from you - I wondered what had happened with you - looks like it takes a lot to keep a good man down - very pleased to hear you are in better shape - I would have hated it if something had happened to you and I never heard from you again - I would never have known!! It just makes you think doesn't it!! Life is ... well, so unpredictable - keep well my man and keep reading and commenting!
