'I started vaping at 15, now I'm 22 with cancer and 18 months to live'
Summary
Kayley Boda, a 22-year-old woman from Manchester, has been diagnosed with lung cancer and given 18 months to live after vaping since the age of 15. She initially dismissed coughing up brown mucus as a result of vaping, but after being repeatedly turned away by doctors who diagnosed her with chest infections, she began coughing up blood. Following seven biopsies, she was diagnosed with stage one lung cancer, underwent surgery and chemotherapy, and initially received a clean bill of health. However, the cancer returned in the pleural lining of her lungs, and she now has 18 months to live. Kayley believes her cancer is linked to vaping and is raising money for a clinical trial in Germany while urging others to avoid vaping.
