The WHO estimates that 10 percent of all deaths are smoking related, which comes out to about five million people each year. This number is expected to grow to 10 million by 2020.

Hate to break this to you but we are all going to die.

Dying of cancer or some other smoking related disease is the real problem. I can tell you from my own experience that dying is not the worst thing that can happen to you from smoking.

I have been very athletic my entire life and I smoked for a long time. But eventually the smoking caught up with me in a way I was totally unprepared for. I got pretty sick on a cruise and had to be hospitalized. My lungs filled with mucous and I couldn't breathe. Now mind you that just two weeks prior to this I was running with no problem. Anyway the sickness damaged my lungs some and if I had never smoked or even quit years before my lungs would have repaired themselves. But now, I'm a little older and my lungs can't make the repairs so I can walk pretty well but I can't run sixty feet. I can't play a little drive way Basketball. I can't run into Walmart when it is raining. I take two different types of medication and have to have oxyen standing by at all times. I don't wish I were dead but it doesn't seem nearly so bad now days. Stop smoking. It will get you one way or the other.
