I smoke a pack a day, but it's just feeding an addiction now, all the magic of first time smoking is long gone.
I need to quit.

My aunt is 83 now, she was diagnosed with lung cancer and has heart disease. She was diagnosed six years ago. She is still alive, still not on oxygen, but now she is really about to die.

She didn't get the chemo refuses to take meds accept for her heart, and still smokes the same two packs a day of non-filtered Pall Malls that she always did.

But then my dad, her brother is in his late 50s and had to give up everything because he has had several heart attacks and has cardiac disease and high blood pressure.

My husband is a cath tech and has had a lot of patients in their late 20s and early 30s who had to get arteries re-opened and pacemakers put in and their only precursor was smoking.

cigarete smoke condensate are mutagens. they contain
1. superoxide anion free radicals (these cause base mispairings)
2. alkoxy free radicals (causes dimerization of thymine)
3. nitrosoamines (causes alkylation of guanine)
4. amino acid pyrolyzates
5. polycylclic aromatic hydrocarbons (are great alkylating and intercalating agents causing large deletions of genetic code)
6. hydrazines
7. cadmium ions (change the conformation of DNA)
thankfully there are repair mechanisms for the above mutagens but these mechanisms have their limitations. will we work these to their limits? its ol up 2 us.
