[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 2616281, member: 355878"] My dad was a lifelong smoker. He had to have his bit of pleasure, as he called it, even taking the last money from my mum's purse so he could have cigarettes to share with the neighbours whilst she sat crying because that was the money for food. In his last years Dad had health problems and he would experience 'brown outs' which frightened him, as he slowly became unconscious, and he stopped smoking. He mourned for the money he'd spent on cigarettes, for the things he could have given his family, the holidays, clothes, little luxuries, that my mum never had a fridge in the kitchen. All far too late. I can only urge that you don't go back to smoking - they do say that if you can go 90 days any habit can be broken [/QUOTE]
