It's a wonderful thing......motherly love. Strong and vibrant. We, mothers, are proud of our kids. Love them dearly. Our hearts break when they go through bad times. But, what in the world can we do if they are up against the cancer stick? My daughter has been smoking now for somewhere around thirty-five(35) years. She has tried to quit many times. She has tried the patches, the gum, medications, etc. I really don't want to see her with an oxygen tank and emphysema in her lungs. Ugh! She already has a cough. I recall back when I was in junior high and taking a home nursing class. We watched a documentary on smoking. (This was back in the early 60's)So horrible to see smokers with holes in their throats still smoking through that hole. I get chills just thinking about it. My daughter is strong as an ox physically, mentally she has her recall issues and is bi-polar, has even been addicted to meth for a time, but as far as the nicotine addiction goes she is a wimp. I wish I knew of a miracle that would help her to forget that cigarettes even exist. Your thoughts.

I'm so sorry to hear this. She must want to make the change. All you can do is pray for her that she changes her ways. I pray that she does too.

That's how the mother loves her daughter. Miracle may happen. Only God can heal your sick daughter. Let's pray for her.
