  1. Welcome to the community, ! I'm glad you found us. Please know you are not alone. Many people continue smoking after they are diagnosed. Smoking is a powerful addiction. Quitting can feel impossible. Are you no longer smoking now? Do you have a good doctor and support at home? Please know we are here for you whenever you need us. Gentle hugs. - Lori (Team Member)
