Here in Canada, we recently started a new campaign. It’s called ‘unsmoke’ and it’s mission is to end smoking. (You can learn more at: action.unsmoke.ca )
I really want to plead with all smokers to quit smoking. Both for their own health, and the health of people like me.
You see, I have a condition called Interstitial Lung Disease. When you have ILD, the aveoli, which is the tissue around the air sacs, thicken and scar. This leads to severe shortness of breath, a chronic cough, and fatigue.
Some of the worst things I can be around, and/or have in my system, are asbestos, industrial chemicals, and cigarette smoke. (Even secondhand.)
But this isn’t just about me. I also beg smokers to quit because of their own lives. They deserve to live a wonderful, long life.
Thanks for reading!
