#STForum: Don’t worry so much about passing flat on to children
"Our children will lead their own lives. Our children will have their own flats .. Stripped bare, our homes are just shelters that shield us from the elements. Let us not get so obsessed with something so basic & be consumed by it. What’s more important is what happens within the bricks and mortar that creates fond memories for our children & perhaps, grandchildren"

Forum: My smoker friends are thinking of quitting now that I have cancer
"I have never smoked in my life. My oncologist said I match the profile of a typical second-hand smoke victim – my parents and two elder brothers all smoked, and I lived with them till I was 30. I got lung cancer that spread to my brain and body." #StopSmoking #CigarettesKill #SecondHandSmoke
