Fast forward four operations later for four aneurysms, one in leg, one in abdomen two on aorta. The last one left him looking like he had a stroke. He walks with a cane now and at least he can speak again clearly once his vocal cords started working again.
He found out he has another one and it will be dangerous to repair.
His brother had a lung removed and still smoked while needing oxygen. He found out that he will die in less than two years.

This is last year's birthday party at a resturant for my wife's uncle. He went outside to light up right after the pic. My wife also has quit several times through the years and I don't think she smokes. That family has it bad. My wife is 44 and we have been together since she was 17. I used to get mad at her for smoking.

Dude I quit Jan 1, 2009 as a promise to myself that I would be a non-smoker by the time my car got here. If I can do it, you can do it.

I used Chantix, and it worked great. My real quit date was Christmas day, but on New Year's eve I cheated and bummed two cigarettes, both times I could only smoke half of them before I put them out. I don't have any cravings anymore, and my car will have that new car smell that much longer, and I don't get winded on the 10 minute hilly walk from the parking lot to my office.

You can do it brother...

Well, folks. I've done very well but I'm dying for my eCig to get here. I keep having feelings of "Just one, and when my eCig gets here then I'll be ok."

My daughter 'sniffs' me everytime I come in from outside. lol

Rebecca said "Good"

Bonnie said, "Oh, so you can quit for those guys but not me?" She was laughing. Then she said, "Well that's good so now you don't have anywhere to go to get away from the non-smoking preaching".

Damn, I hope so cause I don't know if I could just do this for good. In fact I can say without a doubt that if the cravings didn't lower, there is NO WAY I could make it.
