Your description is classic for apnea. Your dad needs to get himself on one of these without delay. It's covered by my health insurance, so maybe your father will get that benefit if he's covered. Seriously, he's risking heart attack and stroke, not to mention falling asleep while driving. I'll be sure to ask him what he's doing about his condition. I'll be sure to mention the heart attack and stroke thing - the scarier the argument, the better it works on him. He's been like that for a long time. I remember once we were on a flight together, and I mentioned that he was snoring during part of the flight. He seemed concerned all of a sudden, and asked me if it was terribly loud. I told him that I could hear it over the engines. From the bathroom. With the door closed. While the toilet was flushing. |

Lots of purrs and best wishes that you have no more trouble breathing and
that Cinders accepts the mask (and leaves it alone) really soon, -- Polonca & Soncek "John F. Eldredge" wrote in message ... -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I was recently diagnosed with sleep apnea. snip I got the equipment about a week ago, and Cinders was understandably rather wary of my new appearance for a couple of days. She would get up on the bed, but only at the foot end. Now, she has resumed coming up to the head end of the bed to be petted, and I just hope that she doesn't ever get ideas about playing "hunt the snake" with my breathing hose. |

Eldredge -- I hope the breathing machine works for you. I bet you'll appreciate getting a good sleep. Does it restrict rolling over so that you can change your sleeping position? Well, I guess that won't matter, anyway because when you sleep with a cat, the cat does that. Annie |
