Would you tell them?

    Your mother needs to get to the point where she wants to quit herself.

    You could always pick up some brochures about the harmful effects of smoking and leave one in her letterbox every now and then?

    She needs to get to that point where suddenly she sees what a bad thing it is, then SHE will want to quit. Much easier once you hit this point.

    Honestly, no. I wouldn't. And I really don't mean to sound cold-hearted, rather from my own experience people need to be 'scared straight' as it were, because at least in my case, I didn't bother to listen even when people did tell me. I am stubborn. It took a blood stick after a week of blurred vision, unquenchable thirst, etc to get the picture... that a blood sugar count of 513 was not only diabetic, it was damn-near coma. With a little luck and a lot of subway, I've gotten it down to 122 at last stick. 80-120 is normal. Also dropped 41 pounds from 12-23-11. Just found this site a day ago and will use it to drop the other 90lbs. That's what it took for me, and everyone has their own story, but to be straight... leave it be. They have to find out for themselves.
