My dad has gone through 2 strokes and he still won't stop. He says he'd rather die happy than live unhappy.

Order an E-Cig for him. My Mom has smoked for 40 years, since she was 12, and I got her to switch...

That's exactly the attitude my pops had. In a way I respected it, but I was also pissed that we lost a lot of good years because of the stubborness.

I paid $92 after shipping and tax which included two complete 902 PV's (personal vaporizer), 5 extra blank cartridges and two bottles of nicotine juice (e-juice).

Still haven't smoked a cigarette....still haven't had an urge to.

Been over two weeks now, still haven't smoked or really had a craving to smoke an actual cigarette. 3 good friends of mine have made the switch now with similar results. One of them, a pack a day smoker, is down to a pack a week now...just like that.

Good job man. I quit 6 years ago and you're over the hard part.

Believe it or not, it wasn't hard at all. Pretty easy when you cheat like I did.

Even though I'm out of shape from the offseason, my "to and from" downtown Fort Worth time on my bicycle is the same as it was at the end of last season (Around November). I wasn't gasping for breath or anything before, but I can easily tell a difference in lung performance.
