I made a discovery the other night.
Reading in bed next to someone else who is asleep--or who wants to be--can be a challenge. As many know from childhood, a flashlight under the covers, or the modern version--an e-reader with light--works for a couple minutes, and then gets too stuffy.
However, if you're using an xPAP, suddenly, it's no problem to breathe. It's rather like having a snorkel while swimming...!
who says xPAP can't be fun?

Yes, this can also be very neat on a cold night. Just cover up completely and you can still breathe.wolewyck wrote:I made a discovery the other night.

You can also purse your lips and blow air continuously at your dog or cat. Or on your spouse.
