Sorry to here about the bad news.My grandmother had lung cancer but she did the chemo I think that's how its spelled.But it ended up getting rid of it but it could still come back but shes doing good now them treatments are just tough but worth it in the end and she hasn't smoked for 40 years.Just make sure she does them treatments and be there for her and she can pull through it.Im glad I never started that habit I always thought whats the point of smoking them if it dont get you high.

i hear you, even with death looking you in the face most of the family gathers outside the funeral home to smoke before the services. i quit a year ago oct. it just makes me sad to see people smoke but i also know how hard they are to give up....

i'm glad your grandmother is doing good****, my cousin will be getting test done next week to see how far the cancer has gone and go over treatment options then. hopefully they caught it in time and the chemo can work its magic. i remember how tough chemo was on my mom, she was a big girl and she lost over a hundred pounds and was to weak to walk. with my step mom, by the time they found it it had already spread through most of her other organs and she died within a month of diagnosis

I know I need to quit the filthy fuckers, but I just can't see not having cigarettes in my life.
Beware of advice offered by anyone that hopes to sell you something.

i have been smoking 14 years and i hate the bastards now. they make you smell like hell and i can hardly breathe anymore. also being diabetic it makes me a prime target for stroke and heart attack. i am trying to quit while i am semi young. i am to the point where all the years of partying are starting to catch up with me. i have a prescription for chantix, so i am gonna try to quit soon for the sake of me and my son. i watched my wifes uncle with emphysema smoke a cigarette last night while he gagged and lost his breath and it made me think of how fucked up these little things are. they are killing people and still they smoke even on their death bed.

One of my good friends passed away last year from lung cancer. He was a 1.5 pack a day smoker. He is literally laying in an open casket after chemo ravaged him (looked nothing like he did when he was healthy). Originally Posted by kevin

In the four hours I was with him he finished off a pack and was bumming smokes off of others. It was sad to see someone blindly following the path that killed his father / best friend.
He has since had the smarts to quit.

sorry about your loss Originally Posted by tnrtinr

the easiest way to quit these little bastards is to never try them in the first place
if you know they will kill you one day it makes it pretty easy to say naw man ill just hit this blunt
(i know this isnt going to help you guys who already are smokers but just throwing my $0.02 out there)
