I had such a time trying to get my mask to fit and finally I found one that pretty much does the trick, until I try to sit up and forget I have it on and it yanks my head back by the nostrils. OUCH.
Hope you like this bit of humor.
P.S. there is no Bob at our house, it seemed a funny cartoon image to make.

Isn't this how one is supposed to look on their first night of CPAP?

Wars arise from a failure to understand one another's humanness. Instead of summit meetings, why not have families meet for a picnic and get to know each other while the children play together?

Great suggestion, goose. Mike Moran's book was sold by cpap.com at one point.
Click Here for "This Book Blows: A CPAP Bedside Companion" by Mike Moran

More humor from a cpaptalker: Liam's Book
Similarly, how about searching for the posts of Liam1965? His tag lines are worth the visit, IMHO.
Karen,
Whose tag lines are definitely less amusing
