I am so sorry, it must be awful for you, I lost my dad to cancer too (although not lung cancer, but he was a pipe smoker) Don't blame your dad for smoking to the last - like the rest of us he is a nicotine addict, quitting for him now would be all pain and no gain. You are right to go back to 14mg, now is not the time to step down - protect your quit with all you have.
