James Johnson now only has one working lung and has been told that he'd die before 40 if he continues vaping
A nightclub bouncer has told how he was left in a coma and nearly died after 'continuously' puffing away on a disposable during night overnight shifts.
James started smoking vape around 18 months ago as something to do during his long shifts. Even though he says he was warned by friends that they're unhealthy, he says he just 'fobbed it off' and thought 'nothing would happen to him.' After he started throwing up blood, James was rushed to intensive care in May this year where he was put on oxygen and in a coma. He was then diagnosed with bilateral pneumonia and doctors discovered that when he vaped, chemicals were going into his lungs and filled them with pus.
When James woke up from the coma, he didn't know who his partner Charlotte, 23, was and also didn't know he had a daughter. He said: "I didn't know I had a daughter and I didn't know who was my partner or who my parents were. It was very scary."
