I am trying very hard not to make comments about sparkly bats in the night.

Go ahead, make my day! Don't you think it a little odd (spam, maybe) that the first post someone makes is full of typos, and lacks the information needed to make any kind of suggestions? Are they on xpap, do they snore, do they have anemia, do they have any known respiratory problems, etc, etc. Make up your own questions, but I struggle to expect any kind of response from the OP.

No. There are many seniors on the net these days who are trying hard to get information they need. They don't know how to use spellcheck, are typing with two fingers on the senior centre's or library's computer. Also the internet is international, this could be someone posting with a dictionary in one hand. How well would you do asking questions in French or German?

I have not had that problem. If I were pale only in the mornings I'd want to make sure my oxygen levels were staying up during sleep. The doctor can order an oxygen monitor to be clipped on your finger overnight to check and make sure things are ok. I'd certainly tell my doctor.

Seconded to this. I have a friend from South Africa. I always wondered why he couldn't spell correctly, cause he is a pretty smart guy. I saw him respond to something in another language, which i presume to be Afrikaans, It then clicked that English was not his first language, and considering that... he spells pretty well.

Yes - on my Facebook I have family posting in Dutch, friends posting in English, French, Spanish, Hebrew, Yiddish and German. I can respond in pretty fluently in English, in rather mediocre Dutch and French. For the rest I need Google translate to get the exact meaning though I can usually puzzle it out - except for the Hebrew - and I only respond in English. I can assure you that my French and Dutch are not any better then the OP's post and switching dictionaries for the spellcheck is a pain.

I agree with kteaque... the O2 monitor is readily available and simple to use. I recommend going for the low hanging fruit first (translation: try the easy stuff first).
