I didn't know exactly where to post this, so forgive me if I've chosen the wrong section, but I had to share this with you all. I woke up this morning and took my first puff of the day on my 510. As I exhaled, I started to cry. I started to cry because I realized how much this product has changed my life positively in just a short week's time.
I remembered watching my mother, a long term smoker, drugged and sobbing in agony as she underwent outpatient surgery to have her eyelids burned off her face because there was no other way to prevent the cancer in her skin from spreading. After the procedure, I steadied my nerves with the exact same sickness responsible for the horrible trauma I had just watched my mother go through.
I remembered my dear grandfather, who smoked his entire life, and was finally released from his hell 12 years ago, where he died on a respirator because his body could no longer stand the tumors ravaging his body. I remembered his wife, my dear grandmother, who died just the same as her husband 5 years later, a victim of the same cancer that took the man she loved the most.
I now think about my future, my soon to be wife laying in bed next to me, and the children we may have someday. My own health, which I no doubt will be outright saving through the use of this remarkable device. My mother, the same mother who went through immeasurable pain at the hands of her addiction, who still smokes to this very day despite all she's been through, has agreed to give the e-cigarette a try. I will be bringing mine up this weekend for her to try out, and if she wishes, I will help her order supplies while I'm up there.
If I hadn't found this forum, and the numerous other communities online, I would have stopping using the e-cig after the Blu. I would have gone back to analogs and I would still be killing myself right now. Thankfully, through this forum, and other resources online, I don't have to do that. I found something that works for me, and for that I thank you, all of you. If not for directly helping me, then for vaping and continuing to support this wonderful new market. Thank you all! This product has changed my life, and I know it will likely change the lives of many people I love. Thank you.
