Please, no!

Don’t give in! Fight it!

I see patients every day suffering because they couldn’t or wouldn’t quit smoking.

Please don’t…

I love old movies, but one thing that always bothers me about them is that everybody in them smokes like a chimney and drinks like a fish. It's disgusting, but there it is.

Either quit smoking or quit breathing. I am on Stiolto once a day and a rescue inhaler as needed. It is tempting when you see it on the tv and movies for sure. I told my buddy when I am on my deathbed (hospice) bring me a pack of smokes.
