A nurse attempted scaring me away from vaping yesterday. She said that
long term studies showed vaping caused:
Pneumonia
Oil pockets in the lungs
I thought her assertion sounded beyond the pale of silly. It took me all of five minutes searching to find that no such studies existed. Further, PG is antibacterial & antiviral. Also, vaping does not use flavors that are oil based. A friend suggested she might have been talking about wax vapers. I don't know in that regard as I don't use wax.
Seems to me if you're any kind of health care provider you would be a bit more updated on subjects than a five year old scare article. The cases cited for that article included at least one person who had pneumonia even without vaping, some others what had not cleaned their gear or been sanitary.
My GP, who I would not have thought to have been aware of vaping told me to keep at it. She knows exactly what I'm using to vape & told me as long is it kept me off tobacco and I felt no ill effects it was all good. My GP is a retired navy nurse, an Lt., who I'd rather trust over some civilian nurse using five year old propaganda.
So, I had a laugh yesterday.
Enjoying coffee after having fed my kids this morning. My cat Bucky has an area in front of a barn that is blocked off. The dogs can come in from around back though. I keep a plastic tray in there, or did, for Bucky's feeding tray. This morning it was one. I asked Bucky what happened. "Rouch," he told me. Grouchy had made off thieving Bucky's food tray.
Reckon the wife will laugh and tell me they're my smart assed kids. Aw, well it'll be alright.
Y'all go fuck yourselves & run 'er slow.
