Sorry Madame I don't lie.

Could you give us an accounting of the 10 relatives (just relationships, not names) who died?

Just yours, not the myriad of other former and non-smokers' whose relatives you cited.

Was "smoking" cited as the cause of death on their death certificates, each and every one (or even one)?

I could easily give you 10 from my family & another 10 from my husbands family but you would just call me a liar again. They did not all die from lung cancer, some throat cancer, emphysema, strokes & heart attacks aggravated by smoking. Smoking was the primary cause in most & secondary in the rest. All were of the WW2 generation. Uncle Charlie lived to be 90 chain smoking & Aunt Sarah lived almost that long smoking. The rest died 20+ years younger & had suffered terribly by the time they died. That is what I remember most clearly, the strokes & emphysama & how awful it was for them. But hey, it was their choice.
