There are only three things I REALLY want or Christmas (but even one of the will make me absolutely overjoyed):
Another Headrest mask;
A battery backup for my "tank" Respironics Auto (not the M-series...I'm old school); and
One of those newfangled Respironics Autos with A-Flex. My tank has quite a few hours on it. CollegeGirl
HO HO HO, CollegeGirl! Old SantaCPAP will check the toy factory shelves for those old model battery backups. SantaCPAP LOVES his M Series with A-FLEX, and he'll try to send one your way! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

MERRY CHRISTMAS SantaCpap and to all your helpers!!!
Over the past 4 months, I have spent more of my income at cpap.com than I have spent on anything except my mortgage (Not kidding!)...Thought that I had bought every single thing I could possibly think of for this new lifestyle addition...great machine; great backup machine, several masks to cover contingencies, extra hose, several special pillows, hose cover, Padacheeks, PurSleep collection, backup battery...Wow.
But no. I see that the next thing I actually need and will wish for is an oximeter, since doing this periodically through my MD or god forbid, the DME, is pretty darned expensive. It's small, it's light--Keep it on your finger so you don't forget me, SantaCpap!
Yes I have been good, and have worked really hard at this project! I do feel blessed to have found this forum and it's hosts so early on. Thanks to all.
(Wish I knew how to decorate my post as well as you have done here!)

HO HO HO, plr66! Yes, just amazing how much all this CPAP stuff costs--more than your mortgage! HO HO HO!! Hoping SantaCPAP has enough of those oximeters for all--a great little device, use one myself! And, it's the perfect stocking stuffer! Merry Christmas!

Old Santa has tried his best to get everything you’ve asked for—
Let's see....
- a full face mask for those nasty times when one has a cold, a back-up regular mask for "just in case," a BG-222 battery back-up with a solar recharger against the upcoming hurricane season, anyone who's tired and draggin' to get tested and get the right machine and mask for them to get good therapy...
That should do for starters....

Hi Santa Baby,
Any chance you could help my 200.5K return to its former 401K status? Extend that wish to include everyone's money, please. That would help lots of people if you could work your magic there.
I just baked some brownies for you that I will put on the hearth for you. Hope you like them. The ones without frosting have walnuts.

HO HO HO! We're on our way, and the Reindeer are feeling great--they just love our annual flight around the globe. Using my Blackberry to say goodnight to all and to all a good night--currently over the Canary Islands! Ain't this technology great! Hoping you're keeping up with my trip tonight--those boys at NORAD are doing a great job following old SantaCPAP again this year, including some great videos in select locations! See you next year!

MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR to all my cpaptalk.com friends!

Merry Christmas, SantaCPAP! This great thread is one of my Christmas gifts. Cookies are waiting for you when you come down the chimney. Double chocolate-chip with walnuts! Hot cocoa, or other beverage of your choice .
What I'd like is a new cpap college for sleep doctors, RT, techs, DME's, etc. Make it required to continue practicing sleep medicine in their capacity. Just print out everything on cpaptalk.com and give it to them for a textbook to start. Then have them use a cpap at night for at least three months (that's the practicum part). They'd have to get their equipment from a DME, too Result: We'd have a lot of rested folks running things. The world would be a better place .
Enjoy your ride tonight!
