72. It wasn't just vaping

They also took away his paste that he spread on crackers. Then arrested him. They stated the only reason they took away his vape was because of oxygen use. Only, he wasn't on oxygen.

Whoever reported him to the police, is nothing more than a nosey ass wipe. The busybody didn't report it to the nurses, the Dr, or anyone in the chain of command. Nope went straight to the cops. Then cop chose to arrest a dying man for using the only thing that gave him some relief from pain.
