It is funny how life (and death) works sometimes. I am generally healthy for my age but am a long time smoker. My doc had me take a CT Lung scan just last week and I got the results this morning. I smoke an average of ~15 cigs per day and have done so for 40 (
) years. I have a small amount of scaring in my left lung but overall they look fine. Whew, that was good news!
My dad (non-smoker) is 21 years older than I am an still going strong. He hits 80 this year and fully expects to have another 10 years and I don't see any reason why he won't hit that goal.
