just quit
What helped me out I bought a lot of suckers and everytime I had a cig attact I would get one. It just takes time and take it day by day. Good Luck to your mom.
Like any other addiction, wanting or needing a cigarette is "triggered" – i.e., after a meal, with coffee, before going to bed. A person needs to substitute something else that is healthy during those difficult minutes when the urge is so strong. Taking your Mom for short, brisk walks after dinner or a meal might help, at least in the evening. It worked for me. All types of exercise killed the urges for me and I smoked for 35 years. I wish your Mom the best of luck, as I know how hard it is to quit.
