My mom was a heavy smoker for many many years, I remember as a kid trying to get her to quit!.!.!.she wouldn't!. In September she was diagnosed with lung/brain cancer!.!.!.there was nothing that could be done to save her life, and she passed away in November!.!.!.she continued to smoke until the day she was hospitalized!.!.!.saying it was going to kill her anyways, so there was no point quitting now!.
My point is that nobody can make another person do something that they don't want to or aren't ready to do!.!.!.!.it sucks, but that's how it is!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well truthfully you can't,but should she talk to someone that is as myself a neckbreather,with stoma,and talks with a machine,she may think twice!.And I haven't smoked for thirty years even then only five at a weekend,but something might change for her hopefully!.Good luckWww@Answer-Health@Com

i made my dad swear on the bible to not to do this just put her right hand on the bible and make her say "today i will quite smoking" if she smokes it means she'll go to hell but if she isn't religous tell her that shes going to die if she doesn't stop smoking remind that to her everyday best of luck~axelWww@Answer-Health@Com
