If I can tell you a story...
My wifes mother came down with cancer about 10 months ago, at least that is when they found it. Well she quit smoking durring her radiation theropy, and the cancer went into remisssion, not from quitting to smoke but with all the treatment and the doctor said quitting now she would be doing herself a huge favor in case it ever came back, she kept getting mild phenmonia (spelling??). Well a week after she was out she went right back to it. 5 months later the cancer came back stronger. She went to UCLA medical for a month,still smoked, then came back and continued to smoke. Once she was admitted to UCLA they asked her to stop I watched it rip my wifes and grandmothers heart out everytime she lit one up, they literally cried. Well as she took a turn for the worse and started mass radiation treatments, when she could get one in she would. Finally after a week of unconscienceness and us just sitting there starring at her she got a bad case of phenomia(spl?) the doctors said with the shape her lungs were in she wasnt going to survie anything they could do, like one said even if she would have stopped a year ago our odds would be much better. Two days later she passed away.
I never got to call her Mom.

Please do yourself a favor, you affect people around you wether you realize it or not, people that love you. Nothing I mean nothing can overcome willpower and Gods love.
