Don't know if it's internationally recognized, but March 6th is Sleep Apnea Awareness Day.
Not sure where I saw the information, but think on the SA website.

I sure hope there's no such stupid thing. If I become any more aware, I'll explode.

Actually, I'd love the opportunity to rub my spouse's, my boss', most of my aquaintance's noses in it until THEY explode. Usually when I try to explain what I'm going through I get something like "But I thought you just had trouble sleeping? Just take a pill."

The day should also be a statutory holiday... for hoseheads.

Hi - thank you for your replies. RACTAR28= Just imagine. . . . the more people we can get on cpap therapy, the bigger the explosion ! Marietjie

Good idea. I'll try it.

Tell Andre "Way to go!" for me.
