I quit smoking 9 months ago.  It is wonderful; no more hacking in the
morning, no more stopping the car for a smoke break in the rain and
lots more respect for myself.  There were two factors which played the
biggest part in me quitting.  The first was nic. patches.  The second
was looking at people with oxygen tanks that they lugged around
because of emphysema.  Recently I had knee surgery (it went quite well
thank you). When coming out of anesthesia I had a thought.  Why not
put images of people with emphysema on my web site as an online show.
I am not thinking of people that are frightening or have sinister
lighting around them. I am thinking of people that are like you or I
and have to be on an oxygen tank to survive.  With each photo I would
like to include a bio of the person and a quote of what they think
about smoking.  I will not be making any money from this and I will
not take any donations toward it.  I am funding this project with the
money I am savings as a result of quitting smoking.   (I always told
myself I would reward myself if I quit.)  As of yet I have no photos
and I have been in a quandary on where to acquire them.  If you can
help or pass this message on to someone who can help, it would be
greatly appreciated.  If someone wants to contribute a photo they can
send it to:
