SMOKERS help me!

My husband is recovering in Rehab now and it is amazing how many sick patients in Rehab are smokers.  Wonder why they are in Rehab?????    I pushed my husband out the front door to get some fresh air.........WHAT FRESH AIR????

Smokers in wheel chairs and walkers puffing away.  Even though there is a NO SMOKING sign by the front sliding doors. The other end of the portico was full with people (patients) puffing away and all of the benches were full for those smokers who were near the sliding doors.  

So I took him in the wheel chair down a ramp to another sitting area.  Time to go in and damn I couldn't push the chair up the too steep ramp.  So I decided I would use the driveway................HOLY COW still steep and guess what a HUGE speed bump and I couldn't push the wheelchair over it.  Quickly an Aide came running out as I was going to turn the chair around and go back down the driveway.  She said had I done that he could have fallen face down off the the chair.

YES - THOSE SMOKERS HAVE HELPED ME WITH MY QUIT!!!!!  For this I AM GRATEFUL.
