I convinced my brother

[mightyboosh]

My brother is one of those weird smokers in that he can do without them for periods of time - a week, a month etc. Having said that, he's been vaping for a couple of years so all smokers are addicts however many or often they smoke, as we all know.

He's been enquiring about my quit and encouraging me because he knows about the circulation problem in my leg. We were chatting on the phone about all this and he said, "Right, I'm chucking the e-cig away and joining you." If he's made up his mind he can do it and I'll keep the pressure on him. 

He's not really a forum person so I doubt he will join here but I can post updates for him.

Well done my brother Nigel.

Quitting is always a good thing whether he's a regular smoker or just occasional. Congrats Nigel on deciding to take back your life!

Glad your example was able to convince him

That's awesome, MB!  I'm glad you helped inspire him.

 

Congratulations Nigel.  Quitting smoking is a great thing to do.

Yay Phil and congratulations Nigel! We have a pretty good section of vape articles that even if he isn't a forum guy may be worth him checking out

Very hard to change anyone's behavior. Good example is the best way as they need to have the "want to quit" on their own.  Good work
