CDC: Tips From Former Smokers - Julia C.’s Wake-Up Call

Julia successfully quit smoking while she was pregnant. Later, she relapsed but tried to avoid smoking around her son. She didn't think too much about her own health. Then she was diagnosed with colon cancer and nearly died. In this video from CDC's Tips From Former Smokers ® ( Tips ® ) campaign, Julia talks about how her battle with colon cancer terrified her family. And her smoking? "What I was doing was damaging to myself and the people around me." Comments on this video are allowed in accordance with our comment policy: http://www.cdc.gov/SocialMedia/Tools/...
