My mom died from smoking related (copd) issues as well as diabetes and heart disease last year. She finally quit smoking after the 8th or 9th hospitalization in which I had to watch her struggle for every breath and get worse and worse until her kidneys failed. My God I miss her, and I am still pissed as Hell at her for not quitting when it would have meant her living past 70. My sister only quit smoking 2 months ago...but quit she did.
I have nothing magically to say to you that will help you quit, but you had the best reason of all...do it for your child.
I wish you and your family peace and strength during this very sad time.
