  Very happy that your wife is doing well. Cancer is a scary thing. I have Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia. My Oncologist made it clear that I had to quit smoking or potentially face another cancer in the future. Vaping worked immediately. This is why it's so important.

  Very happy to hear she is doing good. Cancer sucks. Please remember that the adult vapers of the US have chosen a proven method that is the alternative to cancer causing combustible tobacco, Please don't take that away from us.

  All the best to you and your family it's always good to see people beat cancer. Good to see family and friends quitting smoking through NRT especially vaping which is a valuable tool against the fight against cancer and smoking many of my friends & family down to 3mg or have

  Interesting you mention melanoma. General dr misdiagnosed my wife, saying mole was no issue when biopsy showed was Clark level IV spitzoid melanoma. Glad we went to an expert before it was too late. Value in doctors not speaking on something they aren’t experts in, can cost lives
