32. The problem is you can do it just about anywhere and get away with it

So naturally you end up Inhaling it alot more often than you’d ever inhale cigarette smoke.

With Covid and quarantine in effect I’d sit there on the computer Sucking on that thing for hours and hours.

It was when I started coughing up blood that I went to the Doctor Who told me to go down to the ER immediately. I spent a little over a week in the hospital and was sent home with oxygen.

After about a week I didn’t need the oxygen anymore but now instead of my vape, I’m sucking on Spiriva and a rescue inhaler.
