  • Felicita started smoking at age 12. In her 30s and 40s, she had gum problems and loose teeth, but she didn't know that smoking could harm her gums. Felicita had developed gum disease, and like many people, she did not have a lot of pain as the disease got worse. In this video from CDC's Tips From Former Smokers campaign, Felicita talks about getting life-changing news from her dentist.

    My mom lost all her teeth, too. She started smoking in her teens and ended up with congestive heart failure and spent the last two years of her life dependent on oxygen. She used to beg other smokers in my family to stop before it happened to them too. I hope they do, for their sake. It's a horrible way to live, and sadly die.

      I just recently lost my father from Lung Cancer this year & the irony is that he actually worked at the CDC up until he was hospitalized and put on Life Support 😔

    These clips should be shown in Theaters, before movie starts. Cigarette usage is growing among young people world wide.

      That's a good idea! Then everyone who smokes will be so humiliated that they will hopefully stop Mx

    If this isn’t enough to stop someone from smoking let alone starting in the first place then I’m beyond words.

    Back in 4th-6th grade, we saw all the scare tactic videos at school. My parents didnt smoke but had friends who did. When I was 11 I told my parents that I wanted to try a cigarette b/c I wanted to know what was so great about a cigarette that ppl would risk cancer & heart disease for it. Mom and dad invited some friends over one night and the wife gave me one of her smokes (Benson & Hedges). She lit it up and I started puffing away expecting some kind of euphoria to wash over me. Nothing happened. She then showed me how to inhale. So I did. Omg!! I about hacked up my spleen and lungs! She made me smoke the whole cigarett b/c it was expensive and didnt want it to go to waste. That was about 1982 and the pack was about 75 cents. Believe me when I said that that experience saved me from picking up the habit. The woman's husband eventually died of lung cancer a few years ago. Benson & Hedges finally caught up with him.
