Even she could see the difference between the damage caused by the cigs, but the massive lung cancer tumor that was killing her.....and her took the time and trouble to show her the difference; it was obvious. Yes, I'm still smoking herb....I have end stage liver disease from Hep C and Autoimmune Hepatitis, and it's the herb that gives me the best and most pain relief. I'll quit when I die, but right now I seriously need it. What the hell; I don't have that much time left anyway so why not? So yes, smoking can harm you but that's where moderation comes in. I'm definitely not saying you should quit, but it can have detrimental effects especially if you've smoked herb a long, long time. Just be aware! You're mostly right so don't misconstrue my words or intent. All in all, what you said is true. Thanks for your post. It should chill out nonsmokers who really need to try it for themselves, and then decide for themselves. BTW, my best friend....her husband died of lung cancer from cigs less than two years ago. He also had hep C so he'd have died regardless if he had ever smoked cigs or not.
Peace my brothers and sisters; don't let this get you down. God loves you, and we all have to die sometime. It's how you lived your life that counts.
