Catherine Zeta-Jones arrives with her husband Michael Douglas and their children Dylan and Carys Douglas, to attend a Royal Investiture at Buckingham Palace in London on February 24, 2011.
Even IF some medical benefit could be shown to marijuana, smoking it would not be the health conscious delivery method
It’s a monkey to beat, but then again, he probably thinks his time is limited and what the heck.
After all that pain though, I can’t imagine wanting more when the cancer re-occurs, which is most certainly will.
quit in 1976.... 2 packs a day...smoking for 14 years...
you have to decide to quit...you have to want to quit....and you have to go cold turkey....
now after 35 years, I still have a slight urge to have a cigarette after a cup of coffee...
a nasty habbit that requires one to make a life decision and not a ‘for now I will quit but will start again when I feel better’ decision...
Stupid is as stupid does.
Death wish
look at the pic. he is in the doobie zone, not cigs.
I quit cold turkey in March of 1986. It took five years before I quit reaching in my shirt pocket for one...
I've quit a dozen times ... sometimes a few days, once about 8 months .. and I've succombed for some idiot reason or another and get hooked immediately all over again.
The scriptural, "O miserable wretch that I am .. " blares in my prayers.
I'm on attempt #9. Going well so far.
Agreed. No chance Mr. Douglas rolls his own smokes.
That’s a doobie!
I agree. I quit November 25, 1977, cold turkey, smoked 3 packs per day. One of the worse parts was dreaming about smoking. The other day I was talking with my wife and mentioned to her that if I had not quit smoking when I did I would be dead by now.
Good for you!
Quitting takes smarts and guts. My sister-in-law is a cancer specialist and smokes a pack a day. She has tried everything and can’t quit.
Everything except just quitting. That’s what you have to do...just quit.
Well, my guess is that is HIS choice to do. I am sure through his medical coverages and his personal fortune he pays his entire medical care bill so why should we be upset. I am frankly more upset by the number of benefits I am paying for those who have no insurance and are involved in distructive behavior.
BTW, I don’t smoke, gave it up in 72 after Army. We don’t let anyone in our house or cars who smokes now either nor do we frequent places where smoking is tolerated. That is our choice.
