If you, or someone you care for, smokes and wish it was different, here is your escape plan: Don’t quit smoking – get free from tobacco/nicotine. Over the years author Rocky Rosen has helped hundreds of people get free and he truly wants to help you.(Right from the book Rocky’s story about what started his quest to quit smoking for good.)So, one (very memorable evening for me) I’m sitting in Grauman’s Chinese Theater in Hollywood. It was May 25, 1983. Now Grauman’s (as most everyone will know) is one of the largest, grandest theaters in the United States with movie stars hand prints, foot prints and autographs outside in cement and simply has one of the best state of the art sound systems anywhere in the world.It’s opening night for Star Wars 6 (which really was the 3 rd film in the series but who am I to question George Lucas and his crazy math). Not a seat in the house empty. Sound effects warbling thru the theater – explosions, running for lives, lasers being fired, Chewbaca growling and John Williams (much kudos sir – a big admirer) is at his orchestral best – dum, dum, dum, dum, dee, dum). Horns horning. Strings stringing. tympany drums tympany drumming – it was magnificent. Then the movie was over I went home. So, what was memorable about a Star Wars film?Well the very next day a friend calls me and says: “Hey Rocky, did you see Star Wars last night?”Figuring he must have seen me going in or out of the theater I said: “Yes” He said incredulously (I love that word): “I knew that was you, I could hear you coughing!” Can you believe that – George Lucas and John Williams could not aurally drown out my hack and I’m not even 31 years old. I don’t just cough by the way. I cough shit up all the time. Lots of phlegm. Gnarly stuff. All day long. I cough if I laugh, I cough if I walk up steps, I cough if I sit. I cough outside. I cough inside. And when I’m not coughing I’m wheezing. You know immediately from talking with me I’m a smoker. I had such a rattle in my throat and chest always. Lucille Ball had that rattle later in life. You could certainly tell I was a smoker from how I smell and the cigarette in my right hand.I felt like crap. I looked gray. I truly hated cigarettes (I still hate them, only now from a different venue) but I could not lose them. My doctor, who was also a friend, was telling me if I keep this up, if I don’t stop smoking, he doubts I will see 40 and sure I will never see 50 (as I write this 50 was 16 years ago). So, I take that information and go outside and smoke a cigarette thinking “Ok, what do I do with this nugget?” and my mind continues to ruminate – how do I get out of this?”If you’re ready to change your life,”Smoke? Wish You Didn’t” is the manual to do so. Whether you smoke, vape, chew tobacco, stuck on the patches or nicotine gum it is time to find your way out.You deserve better than what tobacco/nicotine is doing to you.Sincerely.Rocky Rosen
