I am an asthmatic, and have been since I was 5. I never even once considered trying it, it just seemed like slow suicide to me.
That's probably a big reason why I've never smoked, not even 1 puff in my whole life. My sister has asthma. My grandma (who has now passed away do to cancer from smoking) who lived less then 2 miles down the road from us only came to see us a couple times a year, Christmas and birthdays basically. We weren't allowed to go to her house because my sister always got really sick there. Yet my grandma couldn't put down a cigarette long enough to come see us more than a couple times a year.
