I am so sorry for your loss, and as an ex-smoker I agree. I've been spending the last few year trying to regain the health I lost from 16 years of a disgusting habit.

My condolences.

I actually got myself put on nicotine patches a week ago and it's going okay. More motivation for this is good. Thank you.

Vaping has become such a hobby for me, I feel like it's quickly become an addiction all its own, but at least not for the nicotine. I'm a gadget *****, and this is a whole new family of gadgets for me to collect, tinker with, and subsequently break.

Still, it's been ~3 solid months since I quit the cancer sticks. Go ME.

Go you indeed. And you can e-cig indoors for all I care because it doesn't bother me at all. Hooray!

The first time I saw someone using an e-cig indoors I freaked out a little, until someone pointed out that all it really discharged was water vapor. No smoke, no stink.

I'm torn on vaping. I really like that I can get my nicotine without having to chew gum or spray peppermint pain in my mouth, and being able to "smoke" without worrying about throat, lung, mouth cancer is great.

Unfortunately, I've not been able to find a liquid that mimics the "scratchy" feel I get from a real cigarette, and it doesn't work as well with coffee as real tobacco does. Still, I've cut down significantly on my tobacco consumption (er, I guess you don't really consume it, but you know what I mean) since I started vaping. I'm down to one with my morning coffee and one before bedtime. My nicotine consumption (again with the consumption) has gone up, though, because I now puff while I'm at the computer whereas before I had to get up and walk to the window to get my nicotine.

Win some, lose some, I guess.

Thank you all once again. I do miss her, and hate knowing that I will never speak to her again. It's easier the longer it's a fact, but I still miss her so much.

I am glad to see so many either quitting or moving to less destructive means of getting their fix. I just know that I fought for a long time to try to get her to stop, but failed. If her death has some way to stop others, then at least I can feel good in that part of it. I hate that she is gone, but if others don't have to lose a loved one because of that, then I am helping to keep her memory alive. She always watched over us, and worried for us.
