Hello!

Brand new PV user from NE Atlanta here! I am a 36 yo, happily married mother of a two with a 3 pack per week analog habit.

I was introduced to PVs by a friend of mine that knew I have been wanting to quit smoking and have had a new motivation to do that... a malignant tumor found on my thyroid that is being surgically removed on Wednesday 2/17, of which I will have a hospital stay involved...and my Mom is coming to stay with us for the week and she would give me hell if I came home from the hospital and tried to go outside to smoke!

I smoked when I was younger and was able to quit with ease about 10 years ago. About 3 years ago, I was going to a rather nasty divorce and my father, a smoker, came to live with me and I started again. I've tried multiple times to quit... gum & lozenges made me sick and I never even bothered with the patches.

In the last year, I have also been diagnosed with something called Ankylosing Spondylitis (which is a lot like Rheumatoid Arthritis but without a high rheumatoid factor) and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, along with a host of auto-immune issues that go hand in hand. I have been put on so many medications I can't even keep up with them - one being a component of chemo called methotrexate. So not only do I have the incentive of quitting so my car & clothes don't stink, save money, and improve my health... but it definitely didn't escape me that I am sucking carcinogens right past a malignant tumor every time I smoke.

I do have to send many compliments to vapor4life.com! I placed my order on Monday and added express service so that I would not be smoking when my mother arrived for my surgery. It seemed that they were quite overwhelmed and were not able to ship my order until Wednesday. I became quite anxious that I wouldn't have everything here in time and sent an email inquiry. I received not only a couple of email responses but a phone call telling me my order would be going out that day. I received everything yesterday and am VERY pleased! Thanks guys, I really appreciate it!

Welcome Christibella! That is some kind of story, and be assured my prayers and some happy hippie vibes are coming your way. Another vaper friend is having heart surgery that day, so you'll be in good company, if you want to call it that. I wish you all the best with your surgery and recovery.

If you have any questions about your vaping experience you know where to turn! We have all the answers, and some quirky anecdotes too. ;)

I'm confident that you'll be pleased with your purchase. V4L is a great supplier. They were the first one I dealt with and every experience has been top notch.

Welcome, and happy vaping! And good fortune with your upcoming surgery.
