I find for me it rides very high on the cheek almost to my eye socket, and in the am the tip of my nose and where the clips are, and my front teeth is very sore and I have lots of facial marks. I love the feel of the pillows though and may try one more...

Re: Pilairo!
Well I'm not sure if I should even count last night as a first time try with the Palairo? I usually relax in bed by reading, mask on and after a couple of hours, retire the Nook and fall asleep with in minutes.

Re: Pilairo!
Thank you for your kind words and offer to send me the short hose. I am all about the pillows, and less is more as well. I am going to call my insurance company as the DME they have made me use has now converted to a warehouse supply of old Resmed and Respironics Masks, send them out periodically to...

Re: Pilairo!
Nap_ster, do you think this mask can be routed overhead, without pulling on the pillows? I'm not getting too much sleep these days and I thought I may try this out of pocket.
Thanks for your awsome reviews.

Since my son-in-law still needs the breathing tube, cath. feeding tube and a few other hook ups, they are beginning to do some OT and PT services to help him...

Re: OT need prayers
Thank you all for your prayers, please keep them coming, I know they are being answered, because my son-in-law is still fighting in the ICU, unfortunately the breathing tube and cath have had to be re-inserted, but on a more positive note, the brain swelling has stopped for now. They are able to mov...

Re: OT:Good Calories, Bad Calories....
If anyone can give me some ideas for breakfast, that is my most difficult meal. I've been eating too many hard boiled eggs and bacon, not a huge fan as it is of eggs. Running to the ICU and to take care of grandkids is making me eat too many bad foods!
Thanks
Thanks
