Den,

Congrats!

You're a great encouragement to others, so here's wishing you many more years of CPAPing sleep!

(Which is pretty much guaranteed unless a MAC truck drives through your bedroom--Sorry, CPAP won't fix that).

Den

Just saw your post & want to add my thanks to the help you have provided to me and the many others who you responded to.

Yes the forum has been spicy at times - am sure a lot of that spice has (and perhaps still is in places) fueled by people reaching out for help.

I also believe we humans when we gather in groups, can and do form cliques with strange (to some others) agendas but again all part of people seeking help and people being human

I hope you keep your involvement up such that soon you will be celebrating your 4th aniversary

Cheers
