😔this just made me cry my eyes out! My father went through this last year. He actually worked at the CDC. He was on Life Support for 2 months for Stage 4 Lung Cancer with a tumor larger than a baseball blocking his airway. He also had COPD & a blood clot in his lungs. He just recently passed away a day after his 63rd bday after months of chemo treatments just to prolong his life a little longer. He put up a good fight. But I cry every day thinking about the pain that he was in. I miss him so much. I just wished he would've stopped. I have never touched a cigarette a day in my life & never will!
The dangers of smoking go well beyond just the health risks. How many fires have been started by people who fall asleep while smoking, or who throw away their butts without putting them out first, or kids finding the matches or lighters that smokers use and playing with them?
12 dislikes probably the people who smoke plz stop
Amazing
like my friend Eugene, his cough is unmistakable.
There are literally millions of people who have now quit smoking using e-cigarettes. Not everybody can or is willing to quit cold turkey, and the patch/pill/gum have a horrible cessation rate. E-Cigarettes work for many people, and they've increased the amount of people who try to quit in the first place. Their harm is generally estimated to be some 95% less than that of combustible cigarettes.
