We are in the healthcare business so I know how much medication is sold to people who smoke. It isn't a pretty sight. I also volunteer with our local Community Hospice. I can tell you that many of the patients would give anything to get a second chance at a smoke-free life.

Is that why so many nurses and doctors smoke?

What is the average age of the patients you interact with regularly? Would a stroke be a more humane or heroic way to die?
