Welcome to my blog. Here are my thoughts on everything.
Entry For Sunday April 13, 2008, Smoking

I was reading an article about a possible new test that may be able to predict Lung Cancer. The article is at http://news. yahoo. com/s/nm/20080413/hl_nm/cancer_lung_mouth_dc.



I believe that smoking is such a bad habit. I used to smoke myself for years. I quit smoking on September 23, 2004 because I got worried about my health since cancer runs in my family. Smoking and 2nd hand smoking is what contributed to my developing asthma.


I never had asthma before until I started smoking. I am coming up on 4 years of being smoke free. I won't lie. I do miss my cigars. But I will not go back to smoking because of all the health risks. I am not going to tell other people to quit smoking. That is their decision. I just say that having been a smoker before, quitting smoking is the best thing that I ever did. Of course I never should have started in the first place. When it comes down to it, you have to decide what is more important? Smoking or your health as well as everybody else’s health who inhales 2nd hand smoke. That is my opinion on the subject.
