Hello. My name is Kerry Hutnick. I was once a smoker of tobacco products. I began young, sneaking cigarettes, after my mother would tease me with them saying here you want a puff as I would mimic her with my candy ones. At age 13 I was given a carton of cowboys and permission to smoke for my Birthday present. I was not encouraged to quit, in fact I was given cigarettes and I was also diagnosed with chronic bronchitis at that age. I continued to smoke even though I didn’t like it and it interfered with my swimming, track and other athletic activities. Every year I would get asthma in the summer and bronchitis in the fall and winter. About 2 years ago they told me I would be setting myself up for COPD and lung disease if I didn’t stop smoking so I tried with the cig alikes from the Cigarette Companies but they did not taste so good. They tasted like a cigarette to me so I turned to a pen and some quality e liquid, and never looked back. I started with an 18 nic and am now at a 3 nic and plan on titrating down further until I am at a 0 nic. It is now going on 11 months and I have not had a cigarette since. I have not had one bout with bronchitis or any hacking or other issues. My lungs are clearer, my pulse ox is 99% and I am doing much better in that aspect. All the doctors whom I see and speak with encourage me to continue vaping and never to smoke another cigarette again and tell me how very proud of me they are. We discussed how the ingredients in a cigarette which are over 4,000 carcinogens, tobacco and of course nicotine amongst many vs the few in a bottle of e liquid, which is pg, vg, flavoring and nicotine if you so choose to have some, which I must remind you is a naturally occurring substance in many of the food products we consume daily. Nicotine has also been found scientifically and medically to help those who suffer with Parkinson??s, Alzheimer??s and various mental diseases. As for myself, yes, I truly feel that vaping has saved my life.
