Sounds like she doesn't put herself first, so it would be a real gift if you make sure it happens!

I might just add a warning from my own experience to STAY AWAY FROM THE NICOTINE PATCH. I think they must be owned by tobacco companies! It's like mainlining nicotine 24/7! It only INTENSIFIED my habit and the feeling that my brain doesn't function without that drug!
