Well, today has been a very sad day for my family and I. My grandmother passed away this morning after a long and difficult battle with cancer. She was the back bone of our family and this is a huge loss to us. I just thought I would try and vent about it. I've been trying to talk to everyone I can about it just to make things a little better. Why anyone would ever put a cigarrete in their mouth is beyond my imagination. This is the 6th person we have lost in our family to cancer. All of them were smokers. If anyone out there smokes, quit now for the sake of your families. It's a terrible habbit that kills so many people every year.

 

agreed. smoking is stupid. Sorry to hear about your grandmother. Went through that a few months ago

and on a lighter note, nice avatar!

 

i agree, cigs are real bad. i dunno if it has anything to do with it or not but my great grandmother is still alive and she will be 101 years old this year in may, and guess what she never smoked or drank anything and is in better shape than most 70 year old people around.
I am very sorry to hear of your loss.

 

i quite smoking and i dont remeember the last time i had one
im sorry to hear about this

 

Sorry to hear about your grandmother. I lost my mom to breast cancer when she was very young and it hurts to have them leave, but it hurts more to watch them fight so hard to stay. I'm not a Christian, but I do wish your family and you faith that she is at peace.
You're blessed to have had her in your life.

 

Sorry to hear about your loss. I also quit smoking over a year ago and now I look back and wonder why I ever did it. Hang in there cary12, I have lost a grandparent each december for the past three years and it sucks.

 

i am sorry about your loss. my dad was a hardcore smoker around 3 packs a day usually accompanied by beer every 5 minutes. he did not live to see his 44th bday. which was week after he passed away in june 05

 

when i lost my grandma i took a big hit also, she had kidney problems casued my diabetes
but as long as u rememeber them they are never truely gone
i try tol visit my grandma a few times a month, i kno shes lookin after me giving me strenght and the luck i need to go on with my life

 

Thanks for all your kind words and support. Every little bit of support helps.

 

Sorry to hear about your loss.
