Thanks so much for sharing this, Thomas. It is really an eye opener. I feel so sad for her but have great hope that she WILL secure that lung transplant. I will keep her in my prayers and I will pass this story along to my 31 years old son and my 24 year old grandson. Not sure they will relate to it but I can always hope.
Our enemy is our friend, or so we think until the enemy comes to get you! What a sad story, showing the realities of what this addiction can do. I think most of us here know that these things don't just happen to everyone else! Thanks for sharing Thomas!
It is a game of Russian Roulette. I just turned 22 in February. It is NEVER too early to quit. I still have friends and family who started as young as I did who continue to struggle.
Omg finally someone as young as (or younger) than me! Yay CONGRATULATIONS on 1404 days! You are now my inspiration I'm on day 7 the longest I went was 170 but I plan on making this one forever!
Stories like these really reaffirm that I made the right decision and continue to do so every day. I quit when I was 18. It's really never too early. You can do it!
I'm 25 and have 3 kids I couldn't possibly live with myself knowing I have a smoking related disease and cutting my life, our life, short over something I could've prevented! Their dad committed a quicker suicide and smoking doesn't make me any better than him I was just doing it slower. I refuse to put them through that I'm all they have left!
