I wrote a blog this morning about smoking and smoking related illnesses especially cancer that can be backtracked to nicotine, I know 3 people right now that are dying of cancer, two are smokers, one is still smoking but only has a few months left at the most so I guess it isn't going to make much of a difference now.My ex brother in law has been in the hospital since March 7th from a heart attack and a stroke, he is 53 yrs old and hasn't had a cigarette since so I pray when he gets out that he will remain smoke free. I smoked on average 30 cigarettes a day for 40 yrs and all I got for my trouble was copd and hopefully I won't find out in a year or two that I have any life threatening illness like cancer that will cause me to die a slow painful death that's most likely smoking related. I will continue living a life of freedom from the dreaded nicotine poison because I know that there's life after cigarettes and all any of us needs to do to remain smoke free is to be vigilant each and every day and protect our precious quits with our lives because our lives depends on it and if you haven't quit yet don't you think it's time to take back your life while you are able to!!!

I'm a proud Gram of 2 grandsons and a granddaughter and I consider myself a jack of all trades and a master of none, plus I enjoy reading and being outside and since quitting smoking breathing is so much easier because I'm not coughing half of my time sucking on a cancer stick....
