In the last six months where I used to work, two men died.

One had been off due to cancer treatment, he died of a heart attack cause by chemo (apparently this can happen).

another (somebody I would talk to daily) feeling ill when for test was given two weeks due to cancer, he lasted under that. (his brother & father died of the same thing).

All these had ONE thing in common.

They smoked, come rain or shine, the would stand outside in all weathers, (smoking was NOT allowed in the building, doing so was a sackable offence) just to have a ciggy.

I also have lost two grandparents due to smoking they both had strokes, which were caused by smoking. and both took about 6 months to die.

So IMHO smoking should be banned outright, total and complete, except in you home.
