Well folks after a few months of trying to correct my typos, the book is finally available. It is a collection of my posts that you have read on here in a portable prop up your CPAP with it form. Just right for you to pass along to friends and family.
You can order copies at iUniverse.com Just search under the title "This Book Blows". Johnny has been good enough to let me announce it on here and we are working out the details so he can list it on CPAP.com.
Just a reminder that all of it is on here if you don't want to buy a copy.
I hope you enjoy,
Mike

WOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You're published!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I enjoyed the synopsis--
This Book Blows is a compendium of humorous stories and poems written as therapeutic humor for those who suffer from obstructive sleep apnea.
Book Description
Obstructive Sleep Apnea is a sleeping disorder that affects millions of people but which has only recently come to widespread public attention. Fortunately, an effective therapy called continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) can treat it. Simply blowing air into people’s noses at night gives them new, improved rest and silences their characteristic snoring.
Unfortunately, the adjustment period for this therapy is not of short duration, and most people give up in the early stages, before they can reap maximum, if any, benefit. Who can blame them? They must admit to snoring and then wade through a morass of tests and insurance red tape, all to obtain the pleasure of wearing a not-so-form-fitting mask every night—one guaranteed to thwart alien abductions.
Author Mike Moran, who also suffers from Obstructive Sleep Apnea, offers a comforting and humorous resource for everyone dealing with the difficulties of this disorder—and its treatment. This Book Blows is for all the true “hose heads” who need to know they aren’t alone in their quest for a good night’s sleep!
Congratulations, Mike!!!!!!!!! I just placed my order!
When you're appearing on Oprah, just try to remember all the little people who were laughing at you long before you were famous.
Hmmmm.. that didn't come out quite right...

I bought the book in pdf form for my palm PC. I can take it with me wherver I go. Especially for the nights I'm stuck in strange hotel bedrooms. Never could sleep in strange places at the best of time. Now I just might get kicked out of the hotels because I'm reading your book and laughing so loud! It looks very good.
