I know its not easy. My 'stranged husb was/is a smoker, lost 2/3 of his tongue as a consequence, and tho cancer's gone, still suffering consequences of the surgery.

Not sure whether he's 'cheating,' as he did for a long time, but he used the patch, in fact numerous ones, in ways not recommended.

I know its a terrible addiction, maybe worse than alcohol, but please stop.
