My father smoked for 40 years, and lost a lung to lung cancer. My mother suffered from lung problems from second-hand smoke.
My sister smoked, and she had emphysema so bad that she had to have a double lung transplant. She just passed her 8th year anniversary from that transplant, but she is really in bad health right now.
I smoked for 11 years, but haven't smoked for almost 20 years. Now I cannot handle being around anyone who is smoking. it is illegal to smoke in any public building in the city where I live, and when I travel, and am around people smoking in restaurants and other public places, I think how good it is to live in a city that bans it.
