I quit smoking 26yrs ago. The best decision I ever made & I left my ex husband too at the same time. When I quit I could barely walk a block without having to stop & take a breath, I was 20 then. I've seen too many people suffer from smoking & that suffering can be prevented by quitting. Smoking raises health risks that are too many to count. Yes, there are a few that slips by without serious health issues but those are few. My work, home, car & families' home are all smoke free. Plus with cost of living so high I'm unable to afford to go out to eat or to a bar. The ones who believe that smoking doesn't cause health issues need to go back to school. Besides it stinks to high heaven.
