- Kristy is a 36-year-old truck driver from Tennessee. She smoked cigarettes to help pass time on the road. In this video from CDC's Tips From Former Smokers campaign, Kristy explains what happened when she came home in pain after one trip. She was rushed to the hospital, struggling to breathe. She thought she was going to die; her lung had collapsed. After surgery and a long recovery, she vowed never to smoke again.

She looks a lot older than 36 to me. Another reason to quit.
This happened (collapsed lung) to me last week. YES it feel like you've been stabbed in the back. YES you breathe in split second inhale-exhale just to keep yourself alive on the way to the hospital. I had anesthetic putting tube in but not taking tube out and it was the absolute most pain I have ever felt. Pulling the sutures out was like someone twisting a knife in my side. Really wish I never smoked and don't want to know what will happen next
Bummer, man.
I don't smoke or have ever smoked, but thank God this wasn't one of those smoking-related commercials that uses gore and shock value to accomplish its message.
+Lydia Xavier Seeing her in the hospital bed was more than enough. Kristy, you are extremely lucky.
I'm a 19 year old female that smoked for eight years I now have heart disease and copd , don't smoke because you might really croak .
That is too scary to bear when your doctor tells you that you have a collapsed lung.If I hear that when I'm 34,I'd be scared out of my mind.I wouldn't want to die that young.My lung would keep asking me,am I gonna be okay?!I'd reply back and say, I don't know that answer.
Good job CDC maybe one day FDA will join you in doing a good job in promoting health!
Oh dear this is horrible
j
I'm in my bed I'm like a truck or my car you should quit your job of truck driving
Per chance she could obtain a machine that would safely smoke her ciggies so she could preserve her health by not smoking them herself. Cheers!
