It has been 9 months since I quit. I am doing great! I hardly think about it except when I smell it on someone and think that smells nasty and I am so happy I don't smell like that anymore. I do need some advise. My best Friend who is only 47 and I have been friends with her for about 30 years has just been diagnosed with diabetes. She has numbness in her feet already. I am no Dr. but I think she has had it for a while . (she didn't know until the leg pain got to bad to take last week) I have been researching on the internet. She is a heavy smoker, overweight and gets no excercise. She has high blood pressure also. She weezes and is on medicine for that. From what I have read she needs to quit smoking top priority. When she was diagnosed last week she went to get her perscriptions filled and brought home cake and ate it. I don't want to loose my best friend. Can anyone tell me what to do? When I quit smoking she didn't say much. She said she likes smoking and would not quit. I don't want her to get mad at me but I feel something should be said. Please give me some suggestions. Thank you!!!
