Yeah a thing like that can weigh heavily on a persons mind. I was already smoking cigarettes when my grandmother had died, but i was a stubborn teen. These days it weighs heavily on my mind that I have picked up smoking again, especially after seeing what my grandmother went through, being on oxygen, and only being able to leave the house for the period of time that her portable oxygen tank would last for. She was smoking up to the point that she had to be finally put onto oxygen, and emphysema was NOT the only illness she suffered after a life of being a smoker. I had quit, then picked it up again a couple years back, and will soon quit again because truthfully, I want to see my kids grow old :thumbsup:
