I've never smoked in my life. My mother, both brothers and sister all smoked, I hated the smell and the filth of the ashtray that was a permanent fixture at the dinner table. My mother died of cancer in her late 50's as did my eldest brother. Watching someone dye of lung cancer isn't a pretty sight, my brother puffed away on cigarettes right till his last breath, the addiction was so strong. My surviving brother gave up smoking for the second time a few years ago, cold turkey, my sister still smokes.
