34M
adults still smoke cigarettes - 34M too many. Smoking harms nearly every organ of the body and ~500,000 Americans die from smoking each year. No matter how long you’ve smoked or how old you are, you will benefit from quitting. #CessationSGRpic.twitter.com/XMXguM02tg

Beatrice and I are in the studio
for interviews following the announcement of the report. In between takes she shared with me the letter from her son asking her to quit smoking. She still carries it with her and has been #smokefree for almost a decade! #CessationSGRpic.twitter.com/yC94QUnNnE
