Mom just turned 53. She started smoking when she was 17. She was diagnosed with emphysema & COPD (same thing kinda?) nearly 10 years ago. Doctors told her if she continued to smoke, she'd have ten years to live. Mom has suffered with asthma since a small child. Has been in and out of hospital with bronchitis, pneumonia & all the general smoker's illnesses for years.
A few months back I got her a 901 starter kit & she's just sorta played with it. On Christmas day, she had 4 cigarettes left. She smoked them & hasn't had a single cigarette since. She was struggling a bit on Christmas day after dinner. I swapped her 18mg juice for 24mg.
"Mom," I said, "this is why I got you 3 bottles of this!"
"Oh! It's stronger!" There was too much going on I suppose for her to think halfway straight.
So far so good. She says she has little urges now & then but pops her "stick" in her mouth & it goes away. "Nothing like it's ever been in the past!" she says.
She uses nicotine lozenges at work & her 901 automatic the rest of the time.
I've watched mom try to quit smoking literally dozens of times. I've never seen her do it with such ease. I wish these e-cigs were around when she lay in the hospital nearly dying fourteen years ago, coughing up colors of green that I never knew existed.
For about the first week, mom called me daily asking, Is it the atomizer? How do I know if the battery is dying? It's not hitting right!!!! Does the battery need to be totally dead before I charge it?
That's perfectly alright. I posted the same questions over & over here on the forums and at least mom has someone to physically show her things & doesn't have to search for the cheapest stores & waste money trying this & that.
Add one more who has FINALLY FINALLY FINALLY quit smoking cigarettes thanks to this wonderful little miracle gadget.
