Here is one good thing about sitting in an ER for hours...

I had to make an unfortunately long and miserable trip to the ER with someone last night (no worries - all is ok now) and thankfully I remembered to bring my FIN 510 with me. I was able to vape (in stealth-mode, of course) while in his room and in the bathroom. Wow, that was weird and amazing. I have been unlucky enough to have paid a few visits to hospitals in the last few years and most of them in Atlanta ban smoking anywhere on the property. I did not have to worry about that last night. Another reason I am so happy I switched.

I had the same experience...ended up in ER with my dad 4 (yes, 4) times in 2 weeks after his surgery. Each visit was 4-6 hours. I had my vamo and vivi with me and vaped fairly openly. I never had any complaints, actually most people seemed to know what it was and were interested in how to get one. I hope I converted a few people (hello anyone new I met in Maple Ridge hospital

I think having a mod and it so definitely not being a cigarette was helpful here, but if I had been asked to stop I would have. I also vape fruit flavors so there's no chance it smells like smoke. And like there, there's no smoking on hospital grounds, although I walked through a few smoke clouds on my way in more than once.

Glad everything is ok after your hospital visit (all ok here now too

I vape in hospitals ALL the time. In stealth mode of course, but still vaping nonetheless. Just like anywhere else, the more attention you draw to yourself, the sooner someone will have a problem with it.

Oh I am so sorry that you had to endure all of that stress, mokai. It is hard to deal with illness especially when it is not you. That may sound strange but I am far more worried and on edge if it is someone I love than if it is me. It is nice to be able to vape. I definitely want nicotine more with stress so dealing with how to get somewhere that smoking is allowed is awful. Not to mention, I never want to be far away 'cause god knows if I leave the room, THAT will be the very minute a doctor or nurse will finally come around. UGH!

Anyway, so glad your dad is ok and that you were able to convert some people!

Scoop224 - I was in complete stealth mode. Had someone noticed and complained I would absolutely have put it away but I was not keen on drawing any attention to it. The night was long enough as it was.

I agree with stealth mode. Still, you have to watchout tho, they have Very small cameras hidden around the place now.
