Does that mean smoking cigarettes gets you awesome handsome kids and makes you younger?
not to be a downer, but doctors said "..." doesn't mean ****. girl at work said doctors told her grandmother she was the healthiest old lady they ever saw and that her circulatory system was great, then the old lady had a heart attack and it's discovered her arteries are like 95% blocked. I'm not ****ting on doctors, just that you have to take those comments lightly. if your mom has smoked that long and that much, what are the doctors supposed to say? you're effed and will probably die soon? They probably realize there is no changing her behavior regardless of what they say and so they say something kind and optimistic rather than something mean.
