How do I get past the fears I have?

I RECENTLY FINISHED READING OUR MEMORIAL PAGES. IT SCARED THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS OUT OF ME. I OBSERVED THAT SEVERAL MEMBERS PAST AWAY DUE TO BLOOD CLOTS. I AM 1 MONTH POST-OP, AND I HAVE BEEN SNEAKING CIGARETTES FROM MY HUSBAND. NOW I AM HAVING SLEEPING PROBLEMS IN FEAR THAT I MY HAVE INCREASED MY CHANCE OF DYING DUE TO A BLOOD CLOT. I HAVE ALREADY DECIDED TO QUIT AGAIN. I WAS SMOKE FREE FOR 1 AND A HALF MOS. [SO FOLKS PLS DON'T BASH ME.] MY QUESTION IS HAVE ANY MEMBERS BEGAN SMOKING AGAIN AFTER SURGERY OR DID THEY EVER QUIT, AND IF SO DID THEY HAVE ANY COMPLICATIONS? HOW LONG AFTER THE SURGERY DID THEY RESUME SMOKING? THANKS
