Don't have to tell me, I smoked for 25 years, quit 10 years ago and was told this morning I have lung cancer and there is little that can be done.
I don't blame the companies, I blame myself for being so arogant and "knew better" than what everyone and my own body was telling me.

So very sorry, engrpat. But listen. I had cancer twice in my life! If you keep your spirits up, you will be ok! Just keep a positive attitude. Promise me?

I am terribly sorry to hear this news - I have some small inkling of what you are going through - don't give up, don't blame yourself and most importantly, be positive (and ALWAYS get a second opinion)

I would advise you against participating in threads like this one - delusional people who spout nonsense like "The risks of smoking are greatly exaggerated" are not interested in discourse...
