Homeless W/Severe Sleep Apnea

[Sludge]

Once again, if you add him/her to your "Foe list", you won't even know he/she exists. You won't get notifications either. And you'll sleep better, too! Guaranteed.

Thanks LC, great tip.

All the postings of The Parrot (aka The Crutch Salesman) are gone!

Have A Great Week!!!

Wow, 500 hits a day at about the three week mark!!

I do not think it is because of me.

I certainly do not think anyone reviews this thread for the prattle of the shills, trolls, or cowardly worthless dirty dog haters.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea deeply affects quality of life. It is that simple.

It IS because of you... try not commenting for a day or two and you will see the count drop significantly. Its the entertainment value that this thread has so many views, we want to see what drivel you will post next or how deep a hole you will dig for yourself.

In one shelter I was staying at a conversation was about Sleep Apnea. After the conversation one of the guys turned to me and said, “Sleep Apnea, you have it”. I kind of brushed it off.

In another shelter another “one of the guys” pulled me aside and had a much longer conversation with me about how he knew that I had Obstructive Sleep Apnea. He had it. His son had it. He could hear me.

A few days later I went to a public clinic in our area. About four months later I met with a Pulmonologist. About two months after that I got a sleep test and some three weeks after that I had my first CPAP.

I do not know for sure but I do not believe all of this would have happened if it had not been for the very rich benefactors in this particular area (thanks Bill et al!) not to mention a fairly well to do and kind hearted city, county, and state. The medical support net for people involves everyone.

From the time of the first clinical contact encouraged by the guys I had a nasal corticosteroid to lessen inflammation in my upper airway and some basic knowledge about positional therapy. It did help. As it was I barely passed cooking school and I do not believe that I would have without these two basic things.

As I think about it since then I have learned many more things that could be used to help those in a shelter or otherwise homeless situation. Much of the time CPAP turns out to be unusable anyway.

Is this why you don't list your equipment? Are you using a cpap machine?

If Todzo stopped posting in this thread it would be off the front page in a day.

Because Wow! You really ARE an asshole!!

That was out of line and completely disgusting! I won't say who I think you are, but I believe you have many disguises! I also think you are about 12... maybe even 10! You're way worse than he is!

[Let me sleep]

Ditto on that .....

[49er]

Another ditto. The way you responded to me in my despair was extremely cruel and made you look a like a million times worse asshole than Todzo will ever be.

You are totally gutless and I agree with EMS about your several identities.

PS - I am sure you'll respond with another smart ass post reminding me that when I had said I was done posting, that it is now my third to last post.

No problem. I just happen to have one.

None of you posted in the Veteran's Day thread.

Why not?

Don't bother.

The Three Weird Sisters enjoy nothing more than stirring the cauldron.

You are totally gutless.

Actually, my DD214 says otherwise.

You think this virtual world is reality.

Couldn't be more wrong, sweetie.

OTOH, since Asshole did NOT serve, he would fit into that (your) Judgement Category.

Double, double, toil and trouble...

I've been serving man for 68 years, I still havent got the seasoning correct. Jim

Hardly. You would not be someone I would care to associate with in the real world. I find it interesting that like Todzo, you don't post your equipment. I think that's b/c your equipment would be the same as in your other identities.

Is it really any of your business why I didn't post in the Veteran's Day thread? I think not. And even if I attempted to tell you, you'd never get it.

I've had an upper respiratory infection for the last week but today I'm ready to get up and out and stop reading this thread for entertainment. I noticed that the majority of people I respect on this forum haven't bothered to jump into this mess... which is why I respect them.

Do try to speak without cussing people out. It would become you. Why do I think you are a timid little man in the real world?
