Most of my older relatives WW2 age people, died of smoking related diseases. Emphysema, COPD and lung cancer. My mother in law died of Oat Cell Carcinoma about 3 months after diagnosis. She had it easier than the others, they choked to death slowly over a period of several years.

Yes COPD. Even if cigarette smoking is debatable to be a cause of lung cancer, people can sometimes forget about other lung diseases which are proven to be induced by smoking but that don’t kill as fast, but do eventually kill, or at the very least lead to a lesser quality of life where one cannot even walk in some cases without the help of oxygen.
