Feel for you mate, very ironic yes.
This is a difficult post to respond to really.
All I can add to the effects of smoking from cancer is that my wife is a Radiographer and she treats people on a daily basis who smoke and the chances of even being considered for "radical treatment", where they try and get rid of the cancer is a lot smaller than the percentage where they do "palliative treatment", where they simply try and reduce the suffering / prolong your life.
