It's just so many people are making a big deal about second hand smoke and here they push that it is no different than smoking period. I am not beating my foot I am just curious how it actually compares. Cause even my doctor has said that if I have it around me I might as well just smoke. He even said that it raises my chances of reoccurance. I am not sure but maybe he was trying to scare me about smoke period. Or maybe trying to scare my husband into smoking. Whatever the case it scared me enough that I was frustrated about being around family and friends who smoke cause I didn't want to have a reoccurance due to other people's smoking. But that is fruitless cause unless I leave my home and my family I will never have it out of my life. I am not prepared to leave them so....It is still the weirdest feeling like something is missing. Especially when I go out or go somewhere. I always feel like I am forgetting something...
