CPAP for someone in need

Post by treydawgmt » Fri Apr 30, 2021 6:23 am

Hello,

I have a ResMed S9 with the H5i humidifier my dad used to use that he no longer needs (upgraded to a new CPAP). I am interested in giving this to someone in need. I'd like you to pay shipping unless you really can't pay that also. We don't have anything but the machine and power cord, as well as a very used water chamber, but it does work, and would be great for someone who truly can't afford it. Please don't lie here about your need.

Thanks!

I don't need it, but while those in need would appreciate the help, it would be a good idea to say what the run hours are.

Not to take away from the needy, I'd keep it for a backup machine in case the new one should develop a problem.

I donated my old S9 Elite to the free clinic that serves the destitute.
Almost made me feel like Mother Theresa.
Do not donate to Goodwill.
They destroy them. (Probably for a bounty by Resmed.)

Definitely keep it for a backup machine. You never know when a machine will fail.

I've got 2 backup machines. My dad only uses his half the time, maybe, and the VA would get him a new one right away if his failed. We're covered! That's why I'm trying to send it to someone who really needs it, I've seen people post on here occasionally of need. I'll get the run hours tomorrow some time.

Civil disobedience.
Consider yourself in good company.
Sometimes adhering to the letter of the law is an undue burden.
Follow your conscience.
