Quitting Smoking - Fuck!

[Vick]

Hey the Fucking Duke lost a lung to cancer and kept on going


Little closer to home and a true story
My uncle passed away last year from cancer (it was smoking related) hit his brain and spread through is body
I went to his death bed, he told me he wasn't scared to die, he lived a very good life and left my Aunt well off. I sat at his death bed and we talked and I toasted him with Jim Beam (he was the man who taught me to appreciate Jim Beam)
He was an amazing man, larger than life it's self and he wouldn't have wanted it any other way

He didn't linger, the Doctor gave him 6 months, he passed away after 2

He left me his gold watch from his railroad days (he ended his career as a senior vice president after spending his entire career - 30 some years with the railroad)
It's one of my most treasured possessions. I'm one of the very few people in this world with a gold CSX watch

Yeah I miss him, the great stories we shared (he saw Frank Sinatra preform live when he was only 8) but most of all he always has my admiration, love and respect


So for those of you quitting, good luck and I wish you success

For those of us who at this time choose to keep smoking, well that's our choice
