I was BAD! lol

[msradar65]

My daughter was in my bed last night pretending to be asleep with my mask near her forehead. She was playing possum and refused to get out my bed......soooooooo........I turned on my machine and she jumped out the bed!! She was like WOW that is cold and that is a LOT OF AIR! lol

Might as well start her gettin' used to it, since . . .

Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) has been shown to have an important familial component, suggesting the presence of a genetic basis for this disorder. -- http://erj.ersjournals.com/content/32/5/1304.full

That's ME bein' bad!

Sorry. Couldn't resist.

Forgive me?

There is a theory that you might save your children from the curse of Sleep Apnea by having their Tonsils and Adenoids removed early in life. I wonder if an Orthodontist early enough might help?

I had mine removed at about 8 years old, didn't help.

Oops. Does this mean I hijacked again?!

[msradar65]

yeap, I thought about that too. I tried using my pulse ox on her over night. she looks good for now. She is happy though I wear my face hugger! lol She says now she does not have to come check and make sure I am still alive and breathing in the middle of the night when the horrid snoring would stop.

My daddy snored so loud he shook the rafters. When he quit snoring (& breathing) the rest of us would stop, wait and .... then he's start again. He died @ 57 y.o. of MI.
I had my tonsils/adenoids out age 9. leaving a cavern but still diagnosed with OSA this year. Inherited or not, I will wear PAP of some sort.
