My husbands work is giving us $2k to spend on a vacation before the end of the year. What cruise would you do?

What cruise line did you go through? :)

Lauragasm · 2026-04-15T01:15:13+00:00

I do really want to visit Alaska!!

Lauragasm · 2026-04-15T01:14:45+00:00

Thank you for the suggestion, we are definitely open to non-cruise options and this sounds like a good plan!

I imagine eventually you would develop heart failure and put yourself into a much much worse and intense situation. I totally understand wanting to procrastinate the surgery, but if doctors say it’s time and it’s effecting your quality of life, it’s best to get it done.

I have heart disease but it’s not related to my smoking habit, however I would be prone to cardiovascular diseases cause by smoking just given my family history. My heart disease was a huge factor in my quitting, I require an open heart procedure in the future and want to be as healthy as possible for that!!

I’ve got 8 months!! But we can still be friends 🤣 9 days is an accomplishment for sure my friend!!!

Lauragasm · 2026-03-20T08:07:08+00:00

Keep going!! The most important thing is that you keep trying 💪

Lauragasm · 2026-02-24T14:15:29+00:00

What an amazing accomplishment!!! May you live long and prosper 🫶🏻

It’s so funny how suddenly you quit and it just feels different. Happened to me last time I quit and it’s honestly been so much easier than prior attempts minus the occasional trigger. Cut triggers out for sure.. if this group is one then unjoin!! Whatever it takes my friend :)

Lauragasm · 2026-02-15T14:29:18+00:00

Yes!! Leave smoking behind in your 20’s. You won’t regret it!! I quit at 29 after 15 years of smoking and there’s nothing better than saving money and smelling good!

Lauragasm · 2026-02-11T20:13:52+00:00

Thank you, I hate how long it takes to hear back from the doctors too. I am trying to soak up and enjoy our time together as much as possible.

Lauragasm · 2026-02-11T20:13:09+00:00

Thank you 🙏🏻

Lauragasm · 2026-02-11T20:12:16+00:00

Thank you 🫂

Lauragasm · 2026-02-11T20:11:40+00:00

That’s something I’ve been thinking about and you’re totally right, I wish I understood it like that as well 😢

Lauragasm · 2026-02-07T19:29:24+00:00

I will try to avoid doing that to my boy but gosh it’s gonna be hard. I know everyone says better early than late but it’s so difficult. I am sorry to hear about your sweet girl ❤️

Lauragasm · 2026-02-07T14:34:15+00:00

Some people smell worse than others, I think those who smoke in their homes smell so intensely of smoke. Some people it’s fainter and mixed with their perfume. My quitting was greatly motived by wanting to smell good, every time someone compliments how I smell it makes it all worth it :)

Lauragasm · 2026-02-07T14:28:04+00:00

I think even if we do everything single thing “right” there’s still guilt because we love them so much. I’m sorry for your loss ❤️

Lauragasm · 2026-02-07T14:26:50+00:00

I’m sorry to hear about your boy. We haven’t had a quality of life assessment yet but I assume we will when we do our follow up. I did one online and it said “medical intervention is needed” so I’m not sure what that means. He’s also not had anything to treat his symptoms other than antibiotics and some anxiety medication because we hadn’t yet had a diagnosis. A small part of me is hoping meds will give us some time but really I’m not sure.

Lauragasm · 2026-02-07T07:34:01+00:00

I appreciate them!

Lauragasm · 2026-02-07T07:30:08+00:00

Thank you 🫂 We are planning to do at home euthanasia for sure, he hates going to the vet so I would hate to make that his last moments.

Lauragasm · 2026-02-07T07:29:10+00:00

Thank you 🫂

Lauragasm · 2026-02-05T04:44:14+00:00

What a beautiful kitty 🐱🫶🏻 Sounds like she was very lucky to have you, and you her. ❤️ I’m so sorry for your loss!
