Hello. My name is Joshua Cook. I am 25 years old and this is my story of how E-Cigs have changed my life. I started smoking when I was 17 years old. It got to the point of smoking a pack a day and that I couldn’t climb up my buddy’s stairs without being short of breath. I bought my first electric e-cig back in 2008, it was an Envy Bliss starter kit from the local tobacco shop, and that’s where I got my life back. Since then I have been vaping ego’s and now making my way into the mods. If these were to be banned I would be afraid of going back to analogs. They truely are a godsend and I feel they have made a difference in a lot of people’s lives. I know they have certainly helped me. My lungs feel cleaner after not smoking analogs for about 5 years now, I feel healthier, and it has made me pass my knowledge onto smokers to try and convert them to the healthier alternative e-cigs have to offer. All in all these things have the power to change lives and as long as there is a breath in my body, my voice will be heard, and the bans will be fought without mercy. I feel we are a big enough community as vapers, to come together and fight for our rights.
