We’d been sitting at a restaurant patio enjoying the playful lunch of a father, mother and their 5 year old at the next table. Two young men in scrubs and a young lady sat down and she lit up a cigarette. MaryBeth immediately went to their table, told the smoker we both have cancer, a young child was too close to her smoke, and also asks her to please stop smoking, and she did. As we were leaving the young lady came over and thanked MaryBeth, told her that she needed the reminder of how her smoke affects others, and MaryBeth’s actions had reignited her motivation to try once more to quit. Don’t walk around smokers today, remind them their smoke kills.
