This is...Thanks for sharing your experience, Holly. This is something I too have parallel experience with, my sis and I with our mom, dad, grandma smoking, our mom dying of a disease directly related (and my father-in-law for that matter). We have made it plain to our offspring that, just as you say, smoking means death. Smoking wreaks havoc on bodies - seeing our petite mom's chest grow to barrel size with emphysema, Dick's fatal metasticized brain tumor from lung cancer ... my own second-hand-smoke lung scaring. Yet, I also know the allure of fire and smoke ... to be able to hold it near. But nicotine enslaves, right?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
