Mom had a room to herself when she was in the hospital. That made it nice for me because I kept her door almost shut so that I could see it open when somebody peeked in. I vaped my little heart out. Mom told on me to a nurse..but since she couldn't smell anything she just patted mom on the hand. Mom just rolled her eyes.

Why would mom try to rat you out? Is she against vaping?

I've posted about this before, but my Aunt Judy has been going through treatments for breast cancer for the past few months. She was interested in my e-cig because she was afraid of spending so much time in hospitals without her cigarettes. She has been vaping for months now and is allowed to vape even when in the hospital for days at a time. At least where she has been, the staff is fully supportive of vaping.

My mom lived a very long and fruitful life..she passed quickly and her dementia was still in the early stages until her thyroid went south. Thank you all for your comments. I am sorry that so many of you dealt with or are still dealing..it is hard.

Mom smoked for 70 years..she had lung cancer and lived to tell the tale, but continued smoking.
The Dr. who operated on her lung said that she was at a greater risk for dementia due to the reduced oxygen to the brain.

I am hoping it will be different for us..at least we aren't smoking or for some smoking less. Of course that means I will get hit by a beer truck while out walking!
