Re: (...)
My baby is in the hospital. She called grandson Jimmy to take her to the hospital last night - she could barely breathe. Turns out she has an infection in her lungs and the nicotine has really exacerbated the problem causing her to not be able to breathe.
I talked to her for a minute early this a.m. (2 a.m. their time) and first thing she said was, "Well, your daughter doesn't smoke anymore!" Hell of a warning, but she's going to be o.k. we think and I sure hope this is the end of her smoking!!!
When Tracie makes up her mind to do something, she usually sticks to it, so I have high hopes for her - this really scared her.
Retired and having fun writing cookbooks, tasting wine and sharing recipes with all my friends.

That's enough to scare anyone. Hope she's better soon.

So sorry to hear about Tracie. What a wake-up call! I will put her on my prayer list. She is going to need a lot of help with the smoking.

That must have been a real scare! She's in my prayers as well.

She's in my thoughts as well... I guess that would be enough to make even a die-hard smoker want to quit? Better late than never, too. Best of luck to her!

Good luck to her--she has to want to--maybe this is the decision line!!!

Oh WOW! Poor girl! Lots of good thoughts and prayers headed her way, that's for sure.
Keep us posted on her progress. At least she is in good hands now.
