When your coffee maker cams harder than your race car

Oh yeah, I stay as far away from cigarette smoke as I can.
It never used to be like that 20/25 years ago..... My wife was a smoker when we met in 75, wed in 77, and until the kids came along, beginning in 80.She always quit as soon as she knew she was carrying.Then resumed after the nursing ended. It never used to bother me at that time. It didn't bother me until my Mom died in 94. She was not a smoker,but Dad always was. The ME said that the second-hand smoke had taken it's toll on her lungs, and those lungs looked every bit as tho she had been a smoker. However that's not what killed her; it was the third stroke at just age 60.
Ever since then, I have a really hard time being around smoke. Dad lived another 14 years after that, to age 83, and believe it or not;cancer-free; having been a smoker since his 11th year,he always said. Sad to say, I could not visit him much,during all those remaining winters.
Dad died as a result of an infection he couldn't shake, after having routine surgery to repair a mild aneurysm in his side, in preparation for cataract removal. A stinking infection that kept him in the hospital for nearly 3 months, that the doctors could not cure. Imagine that, an incurable infection, in a hospital.
I had to quit good jobs because I couldn't take smoking in the workplace.
