Fantastic! I'll tell you why I never smoked and why others should quit.
My Grandma was is the hospital again(she would die at 54 looking 75), and my aunt, who was a nurse, determined what was keeping grandma from quitting was the smell of the house. She and I (at age 10) spent the whole day cleaning every surface...walls, floors, curtains. They had a drop cieling, and we washed that. THAT did it for me, disgusting...all going into the lungs.
They brought Grandma home, and all of the other aunts and uncles looked around and said "Wow! (puff) this looks great! (puff).
Grandma lasted 3 days without cigs...

You are so right "Race" this is why I never smoke in my house, my son does not need the second hand smoke and I value his life very much!!
Ok here it goes the real reason why I quit...My son came to me a couple of days ago crying, I thaught it was because he was miserable from being sick...no he had a bad dream but to him it was real as you and me...he dreamt that I had died because I got cancer and I was no longer here for him to take care of him and love him...(Who will tuck me in mommy and smother me with all the kisses you give me??) ("I don't want you to leave me mommy I need you, your all I have")
This above all else is the reason I quit because if I don't value my life why should he value his or mine??
Plus cancer runs soooo thick in my family and I have already had one scare I don't need another one!!

congrats... you are stronger than i...

Nawww we all are strong it just takes a little more for some to believe that they can do it!!
