Hi Leesa, I quit smoking also. My friend didn't and has COPD also. On the operating table she crashed during a minor proceedure. That is how she found out that her lungs acted old. No lecture, just do it. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. It is the hardest thing to do that darn stuff. I have barretts esophagus, guess i didn't quit soon enough too. I still remember bill boards in my youth where doctor wore there stethascopes and promoted cigs. Good grief.... I wish you all the best Leesa in that journey. ginnie
