Until you call an electrician, all I can think of is to plug something in and do the on/off test. You said you aren’t able to find anything to plug in there, but I don’t understand what you mean. A lamp, TV, toaster, phone charger, alarm clock, radio, microwave, any of those would work to test with to see if the outlet has power when switching off the breakers. Unless she has nothing else plugged in throughout the entire house then I would just do that, it’s by far the easiest way to test.

Yes, they do offer them in varying levels of nicotine. I decided about a month ago to stop vaping after doing it daily for 10 years. Ordered some patches and some gum, and while I was waiting on those I tried the pouches. They do work and you can get them in lower strengths to wean yourself off.

If your goal is to quit nicotine entirely, be careful that you don’t just fully swap one addiction for another. I’m still working on getting off of the pouches, but it’s getting better, and my lungs feel so much better now.
