My mother passed at age 56 from lung cancer (2yr battle), I was 20.
My father passed at age 60 from many things (decade battle), I was 27.
I watched my mother battle cancer for two years with all the normal bazillions of meds and chemo treatments. I watched my father in the hospital for months on end, ending only with getting a lung transplant when he was 44 (emphysema, pneumonia, sirrhosis of the liver). For some stupid reason I picked that year to start smoking, back in 92, its now 2010, far too long.
As much as I have smoked and for as long as I have smoked I am amazed within the past two weeks (almost 2 full weeks) how much I have cut down, besides random things coming back (taste/smell/less sinus issues). For the first week'ish it was 4-6 analogs a day, compared to before which is more than I am willing to admit here right now but it was too many. Neither of my kids met their grandparents and I do not want to go down the same road. I have two kids of my own now and I plan to be a spoiling rotten gramie machine one day.
For the past two days I have had 1 analog, hopefully soon enough it will be 0. I would prefer to be free of them before I hit 30, I have 11 days to count down but would rather it be sooner than later. The wait has been far too long.
Hi, My Name Is ilk and I am currently 1 analog and all vape for the day. Hope to update this soon enough and change that one to none.
