Another reason to quit!!


16 years ago 0 1110 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
I have spent the last 4 days at my sister in laws and today at the funeral home. Her husband passed away Thur night of lung cancer not a nice way to go. His 2 grown children are now without a father, his wife a widow. Tomorrow they will bury this wonderful man and I know it will be one of the hardest things they will ever do. This man was a very special person and well loved by everyone who knew him. Now he's gone, taken away at the young age of 59. Watching his family suffer the last few days is so sad to see. He has 3 sisters and 2 brothers that are so heart broken to have lost their brother. Smoking has taken another victim and left the loved ones behind to grieve his passing. These people are heart broken, their lives forever changed because of the demon. We all know of someone that has lost their life battle to cancer, when you are fighting to quit this awful habit think of them and the family left to put the pieces back together. Fight this addiction with every ounce of strengh you have in you, it is worth it. I still am so happy I beat my addiction and hope my loved ones never have to suffer because I was stupid and smoked for all those years. All I ask is that everyone who reads this gives your quit the best effort you can.
