Confusion

I went to my councillor yesterday.  I left totally confused, she wants me to keep smoking.  It goes against everything I believe in.  What the heck?  She is a smoker and she smoked a cigarette outside before our appointment.  

I have been working hard to stop this addiction and I'm not going to listen to her.  We really get along well but I don't think that benefits me.

I'm a widow now, my husband passed away January 1, 2018 He died of COPD, and pre leukemia and the flu. He quit smoking 15 years ago which gave him extra time. I am a mother, and grandmother. I have smoked for 47 years. I am going to have my forever quit and I'm doing it for me and my two daughters so I can live longer and be with them. I like to read, swim, garden, crochet, paint and doodle. I also enjoy walking and visiting with friends and family. I am 100% making this my last quit. I have been in denial about what smoking has done to me and my kids. I must make a new life for myself and it doesn't include cigarettes. I may already have COPD, but have not been officially diagnosed.
