This is such a little thing that has been a tremendous help.
Sometimes I would wake up in the night with a dry mouth and have to remove my mask to take a drink. The idea came to me one day when I was sipping my drink through a straw at McDonald’s. Since I have a mask with the hose that comes out the front, and a quick release of the elbow (Airfit F30) why not have a cup with a lid and a straw by my bed at night? Game changer! The straw fits nicely into the mask opening when I pop the elbow off. Just have to make sure the straw is long enough.

they won't fit through the straw, though.

Clever, as usual.
Eventually, removal and replacement of the mask will become so easy,
no fancy drinking apparatus will be needed.
Especially the beer helmet--which is hard to sleep in.

You may also scratch your nose, if needed, while leaving the mask on.
