There are people who smoke heavily all their lives like my mother who
died at 90, and never get lung cancer.

You too, huh? - My mom started smoking at 15 and quit when she was 90
because "they are too expensive". She went on to live to 97. So she
smoked for 75 years! When I tell doctors that, it blows them away!

There you go! There are exceptions to every rule. My mother started
smoking young also. She quit in her 80s because she too complained they
were too expensive. She used those nicotine patches.

My father started in his teens and died of lung cancer at age 64. Now
this is really odd but my ex-husband, his father and a dear old friend
from NY all died at age 64 - and all died of lung cancer. All were
smokers. Go figure!

I'm sure there are cats that ate nothing but cheap grain filled kibble and
lived to 21, but what are the chances? Id' rather not take that chance
and feed them what nature intended - meat.

BTW, I quit smoking years ago when smokers I knew started to die of
smoking related diseases.

I wish I could say that......I only quit when they banned smoking in the
buildings where I worked, and my job required me to remain inside the
buildings for long periods at a time.....
