smoking My last grandma left has been smoking for a really really long time, AND I WANT HER TO STOP! I love my grandma soooooo much and I hysterically cry everytime I think of her dying of something she could have easily prevented. It's probably the only thing that can cause me to cry easily! Can anyone give me any ideas, any at all that I can use to convince my grandma to stop smoking! I tell her to stop but all she says is "oh i know" and when I tell her to use the patches and all that crap she says she tried. Please anything at all to make her stop stop!!

Well, if your grandma has been smoking for a long time you can't really stop it because the blood has already been damaged. You can try asking her to use those NICCORETE( sorry not sure how the spell it) pads.
HOPE I HELPED AND I HOPE SHE WILL QUIT!
(I will pray she does)

If she's been smoking for a very long time,the damage has already been done.You can try to get her to stop by telling her how much you care or something,but you really can't reverse the effects by making her stop. ]
I have the same problem with my father..at first I hit him everytime I saw him smoking. And now when i see him smoking i cough a lot and pull my shirt over my face. But your grandma sounds like my dad just doesn't wanna stop, knows they should but just doesnt.
And its really hard to tell them how you feel too...but i would suggest maybe writing your grandmother a letter telling her how much she means to you, and how much you hate seeing her hurting herself, and seing her doing this toherself hurts you too. And just tell her you really want her to be there for you, just ask her to see someone to help her stop smoking. Or chew the gum, or even just have one cig. a day. Something to increase her life span. Just let her know how you feel.
Good Luck and I hope your grandma listens. ]
I would confront her.
Tell her how you feel, and let your emotions out,
cry even, if she sees how much this hurts you, maybe she will reconsider trying to quit.
Tell her exactly what you said on here, that you start to cry thinking of how she could die, and it could have been prevented by not smoking, and that you love her so much. Motivate her to want to stop, and encourage her as best as you can. Go on walks, enjoy nature, do things she likes to do, to keep her mind off of it.
God Bless!
