My older daughter quit smoking for 5 years, and is now back at it as strong as ever. I sent her the two videos posted on here recently, and especially the one (I think it was you who posted it Trotsky) with the chap with the hole in his throat. My mother had oral cancer and lost part of one jaw and had a huge hole in her palate. She smoked until the day bedfore she died. One would think people would learn, but I guess not as she will not listen to me so I give up. My LH died of lung cancer although he quit smoking 15 years before his demise.

Take care,
Pat

Nora Jones and Billie Joe Armstrong's surprise CD of an early Everly Brothers's album, Songs our Father Taught Us is great..I received it for Xmas and was surprised how few of the songs had escaped me in the past. RIP, Phil.

A very hard addiction to kick.

Today I am marking my third month of being smoke free this time.

I read a nice tribute that Don made to his brother. Made me feel good that he said something.
