Day 13: The fog starts to lift

So another day without dipping snuff is in the books. The days of fighting my drug addiction are starting to get easier.

I still spent some time in the hell known as the fog. However, my thoughts in the fog were not as severe as previous days.I didn’t convince myself I was dying of cancer again like I have been doing all week. A telephone conversation with my baby sister (who is a dental hygenist) helped eliminate those fears.  The biggest news is that I spent considerably less time in the fog today as I have in previous days. This is a very welcome development.

In an atempt to heal the white lesions (leukoplakia) in my mouth, I started a regimen of beta carotene, vitamin E, and vitamin C today. If the lesions start healing, I can tell the fog, Red Seal, and the US Tobacco Co. to kiss my ass!
