How to get someone to quit smoking?

My father just had his 4th or 5th heart attack yesterday. He is facing surgery tomorrow. After the last surgery, the doctor told him he had to quit smoking or else he would see him for surgery within the next 2 years. He refuses to quit. I dont know how to get him to quit. I want him around to see my 3 yr old gradute High School, get married, and have her own kids. How can i convince him to quit smoking? I love him and dont want to lose him to something that could of been prevented. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

what a shame!!i’m so very sorry for you, but you can’t make him quit, he has to want to quit , just tell him how you feel an say no more dear because the more you nag him, the more he will smoke, i know because i’ve been there myself, i had to want to quit myself and all the doctors an my kids couldn’t make me quit, in fact every time they would nag me, i would light up, sorry, i know you don’t want to hear this but there really is no good answer for you. good luck to you n God Bless you all.
