Carol, it's bad news that you were born with shitty genes. Just the same for everyone who has CANCER writ large in their genetic code (like me too), but for all that you appear to want to, you can't load that off (or your appallingly unfunny song) onto smokers!

I just fucking wish I had my Mother's dog-ends around the place to remind me of her. She smoked and died, and other family died (before fifty) around her of cancer who *didn't* smoke.

Hey ho. such is life.
