    It has been 1 month and 5 days since I sat with my father in Hospital for 3 days watching him die all because of smoking, at the end he was on 15litres of oxygen, Chest drain and morphine driver. He was confused, uncomfortable and blind.
    If you do not want to let your family to go through this please quit this terrible habit, seek help from family, friends, Doctors, it can be done !!
    I have been free of cigarettes for 520 days, 10 hours, 39 minutes & 49 seconds

    I have not smoked 11,970 cigarettes since then, and I have saved a total of €5,087.35.

    Good luck to all you first dayers !!!!

    Sorry to hear about your Dad but thank you for that post. It's things like that that remind me why I'm doing this. Off them 1 year, 2 months now and it's the best thing I've ever done.
