Merry Christmas

Post by SantaCPAP » Fri Dec 19, 2008 2:12 pm

Well, old Santa just wants to wish each of you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Since Santa discovered his sleep apnea and started using CPAP, he's merrier than ever! Don't forget to add those CPAP items to your Christmas list--Santa will do his best to assure that you get everything you need assure you get restful, dream filled nights. Thinking Rudolph must have the apnea as well, since Prancer and Comet complain that his snoring wakes them up. Still looking for the right mask fit for Rudolph--maybe I'll get the Elves on this after Christmas--they are a very resourceful bunch! HO HO HO!

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!

Santa, Santa, Santa - your eyes are sooo familiar...

P.S. You might be glad to hear that a recent study showed a higher BMI doesn't necessarily mean a higher pressure is needed.

Oh.....and be careful of what you feed the reindeer for the few days prior to your trip.....being downwind from THEIR "gastric metabolism" could make for a LOOOONG journey......

Feeding the Reindeer is fine, Den, but what about Rudolph's aerophagia?

It'll all work out "in the end".
That's why I mentioned being careful about what what feed they were given......it may not be a "Silent Night" if the "aerophagia" exits in the direction of the driver of the sleigh. And, the "air pollution" could be miserable. LOL

Dear Santa-
I've been a very good girl this year. I've slept with my BiPap more than 4 hours every single night. I always use distilled water in my humidifier. I never clean my equipment so that my body can build up resistance to the germs...well, actually, I clean my equipment every time Rested Gal cleans hers. I change my filters regularly. So pleeeeeeeease Santa, can I have the perfect mask this year? Pleeeeeeeeease?????
Hugs from Cindy

Dear Santa,

Everyone says I've been a very good boy this year. I will send you a list of people you should seek out testimonials from regarding my behavior. Please don't speak to anyone else... they know nothing and are out to get me!

Please bring me a Sandman Auto + software for Christmas.

Thank you.


Merry Christmas everyone! I'm headed 500 miles due north... ya almost to the north pole from here. Well, actually about 500 miles south of James Bay. Talk to y'all on the flip side in 2009!

Paul
