Man I Just Learned A Good Friend Of Mine Died
 

In his sleep last night in Cleveland he was 41-
I am definitely quitting smoking today and plan to get out and exercise more and watch what I eat more closely.

He had high blood pressure and a bad heart from partying for years drinking, smoking, and coking...

He quit all of that, and now he is dead...


41 with two kids- man I am bummed.

41 is way too young.

:(

Yep that is way too young.
Sorry to hear about your friend...My condolences.

nothing sillier than quitting because someone died.

people have died from smoking for years, and NOW you are scared?

I quit Halloween 1997, cold turkey

fuck cigarettes

sorry to hear that. :(

:( That's sad news indeed. My thoughts are with you.

Truly sorry to read that..sorry about my sig space. (it's politcal)

sorry to hear that man. if I can give any advice, tobacco is the worst for you. try not to smoke.. I saw my father die in less that one years time after being hit with cancer.

that sucks

sorry to hear that.

smoking and partying up catches up to you in time

for that reason I only smoke a good cigar ones every few weeks, don't drink and don't do any drugs.
Sorry to hear

sorry to hear that man, I quit about 3 years ago...first week or two is a bitch, use the patch for a day or three...that's how I did it...just used the patch long enough to learn how to deal with the PSYCH issue of not smoking every hour or so, once I learned how to drink tea, chew gum and do other crap for my daily mini-breaks then I tackled the physical addition part and just left the patch off...


wish I had done it years ago, and man 41 is WAY too young, scarey to hear when you're 36 :/

Very young. Sorry for your loss. :(

Sorry to hear that.....

I would give up but Im not sure what will kill me faster.... The cigs or the obesity that would follow after I gave up

sorry to hear that!

You can't leave me hanging like this, I tried called and you didn't pick up.

It sucks to know that a friend of mine just died but don't know who yet.

Call me.

Loosing a friend and loved one at such an early age is always a difficult time in anyones life.
Sorry to hear you of your loss and my deepest sympathy for his family.

Sorry for your loss :( My condolences.

Thank you all for your well wishes-
It's just time to stop with all the superfluous bullshit-

No need to be doing stupid things anymore - I guess it's part of becoming an adult
for Christ's sake I am 36
I think I have been an adult for a while..

This was a huge reality check .

That's sad news, sorry to hear that. Good luck with quiting, and especially with the new healthy lifestyle.

Better late than never. Too bad about the now fatherless kids

KB,

Sorry to hear about that bro.

Its scarry but you are correct in choosing to take charge and get healthy. Cigs are bad. Sometime all we need is a little wakeup call. Sorry it came in this form.

I am sorry to hear about your friend sweety. Sometimes we need those wake up calls to make changes we have known we needed to make for some time.

Now stop leaving your brother hanging and call him!
