LONDON (Reuters) – Retired hospital porter Steve Smith, who is suffering from a potentially fatal heart defect, won almost 19 million pounds ($38 million) on Britain’s National Lottery — but said he would give it all up if he could spend a few more years living with his wife Ida.

Colgate Cares – Community Service Projects to enhance quality of life.
Colgate-Palmolive and Starlight Starbright Children’s Foundation have teamed up this year to help children with Sickle Cell Disease and their families cope with the pain, fear and isolation of this terrible disease. By providing FUN CENTERS in hospitals, these children can forget about their illnesses for a moment and remember how to have fun.
They asked you to “Show the Love” by voting for a hospital to receive a Fun Center. The outpouring of support has been wonderful, and Colgate-Palmolive is awarding all nine participating hospitals a Fun Center! And now you can make an even bigger difference. Voting remains open through February 29, and the hospital that receives the most support will receive an additional Fun Center!

First and foremost getting into the car on the way over to his house, I realized I probably would be weak and find a reason to smoke. Some morning coffee and Xbox with an old buddy. This was a situation I needed to avoid. If your serious about cessation and living longer, avoid these types of enviornments, hanging out some where well nothing really structured is going on. Just hanging out leads to boredom and a quick vise. The inafmous ciggerette 
Day 5 was better, I smoked 2 ciggerettes :-)
