ZAP!!!

It's about a new OSA "treatment". They "zap" your tongue during sleep to keep it from relaxing totally and blocking the airway.
(And you thought getting used to a mask was hard!!!)

The OSA patient died quietly in his sleep.
Unlike his passengers who died screaming as the car went over the cliff...
