Fighting for My Right to Live
Advocacy for Vaping
I know this is a romance blog where I share my writing and
other authors, but I wouldn’t be here today to do that if it wasn’t for
vaping. As some of you might remember,
in August of 2015 I shared my story on being diagnosed with COPD and using
vaping as a smoking cessation tool. It
worked. I was able to put down a 2 pack
a day habit by using vaping as my nicotine replacement therapy. The changes in my body have been
unbelievable!
For the first time in three years I’m able to sing again,
sleep at night without coughing my lungs out waking up a hundred times, and
haven’t gotten bronchitis or pneumonia once.
Prior to vaping it was every other month I was diagnosed with
bronchitis. Vaping was the last thing I
tried after: Nicotine patches, hypnosis,
prescription medication, and cold turkey.
None of those things helped me quit smoking. When I went to the emergency room it was a
huge wake up call, getting hospitalized was proof that if I didn’t give up that
horrible habit I wouldn’t be around.
This is much more than Big Pharma or Big Tobacco trying to
strong arm the FDA, our government, and the opinion of the public. This is a fight for my life, for my right to
breathe, to have an alternative that works for me to keep me away from
combustible cigarettes. Maybe it’s true
that the long term effects of vaping haven’t been studied to know how this is
going to turn out in the long run BUT… and this is a HUGE BUT…. I wouldn’t have
made it another five years without vaping.
So long term effects weren’t my concern because I needed something that
worked RIGHT NOW!
There are hundreds of thousands of people out there just
like me that can’t WAIT for long term testing because they are DYING
today. I’m an author, but I’m not
over dramatizing the facts here! If they
tax these products to where those in a lower economic bracket can’t afford to
quit by using vaping, those people suffer!
If they BAN vaping, they essentialy KILL those who need this alternative
to smoking to live. I want you to think
about that long and hard! Without
vaping, myself, and several people just like me will DIE addicted to cigarettes
when the answer to quitting effectively was right in our grasp but we stood by
and did NOTHING!
Looking at things realistically, Big Pharma and Big Tobacco
should be the real losers here. They don’t
deserve the right to kill another person with their products or their FAILED
methods of nicotine replacement and Prescription medications that have caused
people to have suicidal thoughts. Research
the truth on Chantix: Suicide warning for Chantix and Anti-smoking drug Chantix linked to 500 suicides.
I KNOW without doubt vaping saved my life, and I will fight
until my dying breath to advocate for it.
There are so many lies out there about vaping and I encourage you to
research for yourself to discover the truth, not what the media is trying to
spin off for their agenda. Get the
facts, and please support my cause to Fight for My Right to Live by visiting these
