I am a 57 year old woman. I had smoked for apprx. 40 years, 2 packs per day. I hated smoking, but also would have robbed a bank for a single cigarette, not exaggerating at all. I once left my 3 year old grandson sleeping, walked to the store for a pack of cigarettes. Imagine that? Gives me the shivers to think about what could of happened to him. I woke up 10 months ago and was so mad at my smoking habit, I cried my eyes out, feeling so bad for my kids, that their mother still smoked. I drove to Eastern Vapor store for the electronic cigarette device. I will not ever forget this day in my life. This boy, the age of my own son, listened to my story, (as he was filling up my vapor cigarette), with such compassion, that I loved him immediately, like my own son. Since that time, 38 people in my circle have bought it and also are, cigarette free..The proof is always in the pudding.. FDA has no business in this. My state of Massachusetts is proposing a 45% tax on this beautiful device, so disheartening. I just don’t understand the lack of care in government. Obama is a smoker, where is he in this controversial product?
