If you do STOP!! I may not know you but after seeing the suffering my mother in law has gone through the last month because of it I wish the pain on no one. Well maybe cough...cough...Li*Bl**the mullet master. She smoked for 47 years and stopped 3 years ago. She started having head aches which she has never had before. They found a tumor in the back of her head, took it out and traced it to her lungs. They got the cancer out of her lungs but while recovering her lungs calapsed twice. Shes been ok for the last week and everything looks good so far. We get to take her from the recovery center on Thanksgiving for 4 hours so at least shell get to feel as much back to normal for one day as she can. This isnt a sympothy pitch. ITS A WARNING!! Give them up! Spend the saved money on your LUV!

I do smoke and that really made me think of what lies ahead, thank you for your story. It really hit home. Good luck to you and yours and may God bless you for passing on the story.

My dad n' mom used to smoke, they stopped about 15 years ago but my dad picked up dipping after that, he forced himself to see pictures of the types of cancers you get from it. So we put him on the gum, and then swapped him from that to reg. chewin' gum... so he's now a 2 packs a day guy.

I used to smoke cigars myself, just liked the smell, and have found myself sometimes around the smokers at work so I can breath easier after working 6 straight hours.

Just don't smoke...
