I wish I could give every smoker the great feeling of five years free after smoking for thirty -- there is nothing that would ever make me start again and yes I too am a singer and the range that had become so narrow is now so broad it is unbelievable ( sure tried to convince myself that it didn't affect my singing but that was a big lie ) --I guess you must truly want to --whatever the reason you must want to stop . To everyone out there who still smokes -please think about the people who love you and do everything you can to quit. I can tell you -you will struggle and it will be soooo hard BUT I promise you will never regret your decision ! Murrey
