Let's see if I can get away with vaping in the hospital?

Yes, I can. I was in the hospital for 3 days this summer. This is a small hospital; at the most they have 50 patient rooms. At first I was sneaky; close the door, pull the curtain, and vape and then hide my PV. Once I set my PV on my table and it was sitting there when my nurse came to take my vitals. She asked me "what is that? so I told her. Turns out there is someone close to her that she wants to try to get off cigarettes so she was all ears.

I wouldn't go around making a big deal about it if you try this but if you do it right, you should be able to at the very least sneak some tokes throughout your stay.

I did while I was in the hospital, all the nurses were very cool about it. They were actually thrilled to not give me a nicotine patch.

When I was in the hospital a number of years ago, being a heavy smoker, you'd think they would have hurried up and got me a patch, but they waited until the day I was released, 4 days after I was admitted. Stupid, stupid! As if being sick enough to be in the hospital isn't enough; I was a basket case until I sneaked out to the parking lot to smoke, after my "fall risk" was retired.

When I visited my nana in the hospital I vaped in the bathroom.

 

[ironslave]

I have vaped in many hospitals in Boston and the surrounding areas and not one has asked me to stop...yet!
I vaped while I was in the OR holding room as well as in my room after surgery with an eight day stay.
All but one doctor was encouraged that I had been able to quit with my pv.
My surgeon was sadly misinformed by the FDA apparently.
C.B.

I converted a guy while my sister was in the hospital. We were in the ER this particular night. There was an older gentleman in the next area that was separated by only a curtain. He dropped his pack of cigarettes on the floor and said Oh S.....!. I picked up the pack for him. He was trying to hide them from the doctors and nurses. I went back a few minutes later with an 801 automatic. He couldn't believe what I was saying and showing him as I quickly explained it to him. I let him hit it a few times. He was very excited about it. I gave him my cell number and told him to call me when he got settled into his room. So I took two 801 autos batts with charger, juice and we exchanged phone numbers before leaving the hospital for the night. By the time I was walking in my front door that night, the phone was ringing. I answered and he said "THIS IS A F><K><G MIRACLE!!!!! I visited him each time I went to visit my sister. He was a convert when he left the hospital and damn proud of it. His doctor also stopped me one day as I was going into his room and she wanted to know all about it. She said he was already breathing better and looked better than he had in a long time. I quickly wrote down a few names of vendors websites because she wanted to tell some of her other patients about it. I'll never forget it.
