My name is Ray. To begin my story we will have to go back to the year 1974 when as a teenager I picked up smoking because all my friends were doing it, as well as my parents, even though my father quit when I was young. Even though I started to smoke at a young age, I knew it was not the best thing for me, but I continued to smoke. I was never a big smoker, maybe half a pack a day and sometimes more when I would drink while watching football games. As the years went by I tried to quit cold turkey. It was futile. I wasn’t successful at all. Then as I got older there were other alternatives and I tried those also, nicotine patch, nicotine gum. Nothing worked for me until I heard of Chantix. Well, I tried this and it worked. I quit for the first time for almost a year, but all along I wanted to smoke. I was tempted so many times to just get a pack of cigarettes, but didn’t. Then just like that the cigarettes made their way to my lungs again. In August of 2008 I was diagnosed with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. I was only 50 years old. While undergoing radiation and chemotherapy I of course quit because I had no desire. I didn’t even eat. Went from 185 to 130 pounds. I beat the cancer but started smoking again. It’s hard to believe that someone after having cancer will smoke, but that is how bad the addiction is. I always like smoking. I didn’t think I would ever quit or want to really quit. I discovered e-cig and now I am vaping. Since I found out about this I have not smoked one cigarette nor do I want to. Finally something other than that nasty cigarette. I don’t ever plan to smoke a regular cig again. With e-cig I have felt so much better and am back to the gym and running little by little. That’s my story. I am so thrilled with the e-cig. This is a wonderful product and hope other smokers get into it as well. Thank you.
