I smoked for the first 17 years of life......secondhand.
Dad, 1-2 packs a day. Mom, 2-4+. She had 3 ashtrays in the kitchen. Sometimes had 3 going at once.
The laundry room had burn tracks on every horizontal surface. I told her several times that she was going to burn the house down.
In '12, she did.
She and my Stepdad got out but the house was history. FD was 25 miles away and by the time they got there the ammo in the house
started cooking off so they couldn't go near it.
She died from a heart attack in '14.
I despise cigarettes more than I can articulate.
