I smoked 30 years, heavily. I quit 14 years ago after almost dying from a third bout with pneumonia which left a small dead area of scar tissue in one lung. But my lungs are okay now. My house, clothes, books don’t smell. I’m not out of breath, love walks, and can smell and taste better. Besides, who can afford to smoke now?
