Me and my father where smokers, I Started around 15, then it came to a point where i was smoking 2 packs a day, we didnt buy in packs, we bought it by the rim, theres a rim sa office, in the house and even the company pickup truck we used in our construction business, raming idle time sa site, so what do we do to pass the time, we smoked, then around 2004 my dad was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer, one of his lungs deflated like a ballon, the moment i learned of his condition i quit cold turkey, he died 2 weeks later after his diagnosis, he was 54, btw, been smoke free for 10 years, cant even stand the smell anymore. Smoked heavily for 15 years, never thought i could quit.
