I lost my grandma November 2020. She had lung cancer from smoking cigarettes, but she beat that. By 2020, she was 5 years in remission, but @ 78 her lungs couldn't stand COVID. I've ready leading studies that suggest, smoking is still high ranked for being a major result of lung cancer in the United States. However, during everything which is NOT an excuse, I started smoking again. It's a struggle, I've been smoking 20 years and I am 43. My grandma said before she died; "we'll (I have other family members that smoke) all wish we had stopped smoking." My grandma's struggles should be the example I need to quit and I know I want to quit (the dedication to cessation is not there). So, I've been a member of the ExTeam since 2013, I've been gone for a few years, but I know this is a supportive community and I like to reach out to the community to hear others stories. Quitting is not easy, it's a day by day journey, but the ExTeam is like coming back home when you're ready to quit, need support, have questions, need answers, or need smoking cessation resources. Thanks ExTeam!
