No wonder she always looked over-inflated.

You can see why she is wide awake, she cannot get control of her mouth breathing. Bring that poor girl a new full face mask.

Well, I don't think that's the area that tends to overinflate.

However, that area does reflect somewhat the overinflation of prices, don't you think?

Poor Barbie, its h*ll to get old, isn't it ole gal?

Hey, maybe we could get Barbie to be our celebrity advocate... she wouldn't be as controversial as Rosie

How do you dye a bleach blonde barbie with normal root touch up black hair dye? How long does it take? I'm thinking five days? Help. I'm doing a project she needs to be a black haired godess. But I don't feel like spending like 10 $ on a barbie I'll never use after this project when I already have the dye.

What is your pressure setting? What is your AHI? What is your leak rate? Do you have the software? Is your mouth dry? Sounds like you are mouthleaking - get a FFM.

Ah but at least Barbie does NOT feed the negative stereotype of the OSA patient as the overweight lazy slob who did it to himself!

I'd love to see a billboard of Barbie with the CPAP:

If Barbie can have OSA, then anybody can have it ....
