Smoking can kill you. It's not very funny!!

My father died of brain cancer from smoking in 20 years ago. (60 years old)

My mother died of lung cancer from smoking in 7 yrs ago. (70 yrs old)

When my mother's sister learned about my mother's cancer in 8 years ago, my aunt quitted smoking. Then, 8 years later which is now, my aunt has THREE CANCERS!!!!! We just found it out yesterday morning. She talked to my brother and then my brother told me and my 4 older siblings. My aunt has lung cancer, bone cancer and liver cancer. She never drinks. Smoking caused her lung cancer, bone cancer and liver cancer. She was a heavy smoker for so many years. She's about 69 yrs old.

I recommend for people who are smokers to QUIT smoking!!! Lung cancer especially is on the rise and will continue to be on the rise in the future.

Bone cancer comes from lung cancer that the oxygen carries the red blood into the bloodstream in the bone so it causes bone cancer. Smoking causes liver cancer too.

QUIT smoking, please for your health's sakes. It was VERY, VERY HARD to watch my parents when they were so sick. They couldn't breathe very well and terrified of death.

QUIT smoking!
 
Good Thread. My mom is a heavy smoker but she never got cancer but she does have diabetic and kidney dialysis so now she is in heaven with God.

My Uncle and Grandma had cancer and dies very shortly.

Thanks goodness I dont smoke due to my asthma. If anyone want to smoke they have to go outside not inside my house.
 
I don't smoke .. I hate it.. It's harmful to my health.. I cannot even stand so bad smell of smoking !!!
 
My parents were heavy smokers for 40 years. They quit smoking after their heart attacks. My dad died of heart failure of 81 years old. My mom still alive, she is 77.
 
Most of my family are smokers...few had quitted...I've been not smoke since March 2000! YAY! Felt good and money was always tight now not too bad!
 
My Grandmother died 14 years ago.
She had lung cancer. I correct my girls
when they are just playing around "PRETENDING"
to smoke. I tell them straight out, it's not even something
to joke about. It can, and will kill you.
They just walk away, saying," Ok mom, we won't smoke not even
pretend." I watched her die, and it was the most heartbreaking
thing. A year after she was finished her radiation treatments it
came back full force all up her back. Completely took over
where they removed her lung. She died 4 days before my cousin's birthday and 14 days before mine. When Aug comes around, it's not a month worth remembering to us.

Moonflower-

I tried to tell my parents to quit smoking for so many years. Then, they got cancer and they REGRETTED!!!!! Why regret? Because they were so afraid of dying AND death. Dying is the worst because of being soooooo sick and knowing that they were on their way to death. They knew God is there but still so terrified. So scary!!

My parents really thought that they wouldn't get cancer but boom they got it - they were so shocked.

I hope your mother and your brother won't get cancer. Try to explain to them - many people can get angry when people tell them not to smoke or to quit smoking. Smoking is very addicted and the smokers love to smoke.

Let me tell you....my mom said that she realized that she should have quitted smoking in a long time ago because she should think twice about "death and dying". That's why she said that she regretted.

I never forget that my parents' brand of cigarettes was "KENT". (white package).

My older five siblings and I (of course their spouses and my spouse) don't smoke. I told my children (NEVER to smoke) They saw my mother dying. So awful!
 
I never smoke myself .. but my ex boyfriend still smokes.. he's 29.... My boyfriend still smoke only 41 year old.. my mother and my stepfather still smokes.. but the dr told my parents to quit.... My real dad in arizona quitted almost 13 years ago... i'm proud of him..... My grandfather died lung cancer cuz of smokin heavy for many years......... My grandmother died skin cancer but she was heavy smoker so i dont have any grandparents at all.. only my parents.. that's all ... My brother do smokes he has diabetes but he stills smokes but not me thank god never in my life and never will!
 
Just a reminder, Everything gives you cancer, not just from smoking, You can get cancer by going on a diet, You can get cancer on food you eat, You can get cancer from work place hazards, You can get cancer from sun, Should I go on?? People are aware that smoking is bad to their health so are other things. Should we just banned everything? :roll:
 
I used to smoke for a long time until 2 years ago I quitted. I don't smoke one ciggie ever since. Oh, yeah it smells bad and I don't like the smell of it all over me. Ewww - that's gross !

I like the smell of fragrance when I don't smoke and, I like the way people tellin' me that I smell soo good ! :)

Yes, smoking CAN KILL you.

Yes, the food with chemicals can cause you cancer if you consume a lot like french fries at McDonald's. And so forth.....

But you know how very dangerous smoking can be. If I were smoker and knew that it can cause cancer then I will QUIT for my health's sake and for my family's sakes.

Your thoughts were exactly the same as my mother. The truth is that she LOVED to smoke but she was VERY VERY SORRY. It was SO, SO AWFUL to watch her dying - she could NOT breathe for a few months as she was sooooo suffered and at the end, it was the WORST. As I typed on this post, it really upsets me so much so I don't want to go for more words. ENOUGH!

I REALLY HATE SMOKING - TERRRRRRRRIBLE! I am SO GLAD that the malls, restaurants, movie theatres, etc banned smoking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I avoid the smoking area outside when I walk and pass by - AVOID!
 
Momoftwo,

What's up with the caps? Good for you if you hate smoking but don't tell others what to do, It's the same thing that we don't tell others not to go to fast food restaurants because that gives you cancer as well, We can't tell others don't work where they have hazards, We can't tell others don't go on a diet, because you might get cancer. someone who wears too much cologne or perfume and sets someone with an allergy off, Are you going to tell them don't wear cologne or perfume?

If you don't want to go near a smoker, just stay 20 yards away. But, you sure have no right to preach people about smoking when they are aware of the risks involves, It shown warning signs on cirgs they buy. So they are aware.
 
It doesn't have to be just perfume or cologne. It could be from the shampoo/conditioner that makes the hair to smell soo good -- and, even the barsoap or gel soap makes the skin to smell soo good, too. That also includes oil scent, lotions, and all that. I don't want that smell from smokin' to spoil that good smell. I don't want that smell to ruin my clothes, either after washin' my clothes clean.

I don't want someone to give me a dirty glass when she or he pours somethin' in it for me to drink. It could make me sick - same goes for the health with smokin', because it makes the health ( inside ) soo dirty and it's hard to wash them inside. It makes people sick. And, of course I don't tell people what to do - that's their life they chose. If they want to live, then quit smokin'... if, not, then cut their life short. Be smarten up or be stupid.
 
If you keep pressure on them... Not your decison or control them..

Their choice made decision.. That's fine by me then their bare skin..
Smoking.. isn't good health of course.. we knows..
Good thing, our family aren't smoker!



I ain't worry about it..
Sometime I take fast food once in 2 wks as my treat for my children.. Is that cause cancer quicker..

Oh please.. give me a break!
They know how handle their health and follow up the chart.
I do..

You calling them stupid just because they are addict to smoking?, Do you have any clue how hard it is to quit smoking?, Are you going to call those overweight people stupid too because they didn't go on a diet? Again do you have any idea how hard it is to lose weight? Are you going to call someone stupid for eating from McDonald's even through fast food is not healthy either. I certainly would not call anyone stupid. I've seen people take drugs, I certainly I wouldn't call them stupid, they're addict to drugs, they need help. Just like people who are smokers need help. Give them a break, One day they will quit on their terms not on your terms or anyone else here who are on a pushing wagon.

Have you heard that when people are on drugs, those who pushed their limit, make them do drugs more. It's always best to let that person help themsleves. They don't need anyone going down to their throats when they already know that drugs are bad, as well as smokers know that smoking are bad.

Glaxy-

I am here to EDUCATE people whether or not they know about smoking. You are being insensitive so is Cheri. I have the right to say something about smoking. Why?? It's because I really care about people. I do not want other people to get sick like my parents.

No, I never pressure on people in this message board. This is my first thread to talk about smoking. You are being so insulting to me for what you said to me. I lost my mother and father and now my close aunt is on her way to the death very soon. Please be KIND to me. Don't give me your rude words.

IF your husband or your mother had lung cancer or brain cancer or bone cancer that comes from smoking as to what the doctor tells you and then you go thru your horrible experience by seeing your loved ones being so very sick, you will completely understand what I am trying to say to you if that happens to your family in the future.

I am HERE to educate people. I DON'T CARE what you said about not necessary to say something about it. I never pressed on people in this message board.

You are making me so furious and irriated! But cool and let it go as to what God will take care of this situation with you due to your harsh words!

I let it go and I let you go.

Good luck!
