Thanks Christine! I never thought of my words or the dr's words having that effect on my sister. You are absolutely right. My sister does feel all these emotions. She keeps crying that she can't believe she " did this to myself". The dr also said to her that it was 80% smoking and 20% dental hygeine. Wow! Thanks for the reality check.
