It has been a difficult time for you, no doubt, and I hope that you are feeling better very soon...

Your Mom might try the patch, as it takes care of the withdrawl, and that takes the nicotine dose down lower in her body, gradually, so she can focus on the other aspects of not smoking, like using her hands... keeping them busy, so a hobby may come in handy there, or playing with cards, sewing, whatever she likes.

Some people chew gum, or chew on real licorice sticks, not the candy, but if they want the sugar or sugar-free stuff, then lolli pops and lifesavers and the like can help.

They even have programs for people who quit smoking, where she can learn what others did to kick the habit and visualize a life without smoking.

You like BellaRuth, well, she has tapes for that too!!!

I wish your mother success, and peace for you....

To Health and Well-Being,
Night
