So sad. And sadly unnecessary. There are so many alternate delivery systems for nicotine these days...inhalers, patches, gums, losenges, etc.
Have lost many relatives and friends to smoke delivered nicotine addiction, its a slow and painful process.
I used to teach smoking cessation classes for the American Cancer Society but have come to believe that the first step is to find an alternate nicotine delivery system. Its not the nicotine that kills, its the smoke. Folks seem to do best on the inhalers since they mimick the ingrained physical behaviors of smoking.
I know your friend's spirit felt honored by your presence.
