When I was a smoker, I was forever worrying about dying from cancer. My grandparents died from smoking related lung cancer in their 70s, so I knew that cancer was probably in my genes somewhere. And I may not make it as far as 70.
What I did not consider, is "what would happen if I lived"? I say this because a friend's mother has COPD - she can't walk up and down stairs, she is on permanent oxygen, she can't live independently anymore. She did manage to quit a few years ago, but she was already quite ill.
Smoking can severely affect quality of life as well as quality. Quit while you are ahead!
But you knew that already.
