I saw a woman buy a pack

[Evelyn]

... almost told her 'my mom was your age when she died of lung cancer'. So ignorant. thinking you won't get ill. Beat the odds. I kept my mouth shut. But ohohoh!!!!!

I just spent the weekend with some relatives at their house. They are smokers but only smoke outside. I barely got any sleep from listening to them gag and cough all night, and they were at the other end of the house.

 

Trust me E. That woman at the store and my relatives all know they need to quit. They are just not ready yet. I was the same way not to long ago.

True :) but some will be too late

Yes, that's the sad part. :( I wish people would wake up.

It's a real battle - addiction always is!

what would of been your response as a smoker if a random person said that to you ? ( be truthful now )

[Leanna]

I was smoking outside once and some guy approached me and told me his friend was just diagnosed with oral cancer. Did that stop me? Nope. I just sat in my backyard where the fence is instead of the front.

 

Sigh.

We were all ignorant (or pretended to be) for a long time...

 

We keep the quit

We help others keep the quit

 

Its all we can do!
