Quitting smoking is no guarantee of being lung cancer free. Both my aunt and my mom got lung cancer many years after quitting. And I know people who never smoked or were around smokers who got it.
Well, you can't really expect your health to jump back to non-smoker levels overnight if you've smoked for many years. Which would you rather have: A 50% chance of dying from a stroke caused by smoking, or a 25% chance? Go with the odds. Heck, they say after 15 or so years your chance of having or dying from a serious complication such as stroke or heart attack are the same as someone who has never smoked. Worth the effort imo.
I quit 744 days ago! Proud of myself. :-)
