After days of hell and withdrawls and patches and phone counseling he is now officially smoking again. All I can say is smoke till you die! I am glad I quit nearly 11 years ago or I would be broke and starving with each pack $5.00.

There is nothing else you can say, it is what my husband said to his mother and this is what happened, liver cancer.

@andriaperry Yes, in fact she also had buildup of cholesterol that caused pain in the legs.

Smoking causes more than cancer.

I never tried smoking. I'm glad you kicked the habit 11 years ago.

I'm glad I never got hooked on it. I used to be a social smoker for a VERY brief time. Thankfully, I stopped because i know from friends and family just how very, very hard it is to break that habit. Has he tried one of those vapor things? My sister and niece both switched to that.

Not sure how many times he's tried to quit. According to a class I took at the VA, it takes the average smoker six tries before they are successful. 11 years is impressive!

Since I have known him, I would say 12 to 15 times. Thank you! I did smoke 2 packs a day when I quit.

This is so sad that your husband went back to smoking.

We both quit cold turkey. I smoked 4 packs a day at the time - if I can quit anyone can quit...you have to want to and obviously your husband doesn't want to.
