A Real Newbie

Hi Guys

Only had my iron lung and Darth Vadar mask for a couple of days but wonderered if there was a forum on the ethernet that could be relevant so Googled it and here I am.
I'm an active member of a number of property/real estate forums so I am familiar with the forum set-up, just hoping I have enough time to contribute and benefit from this forum.

I have to say that when my wife-to-be said that the snoring and other noises were an issue, it never occured to me that I would be kitted-out with the mask and CPAP device: I didnt know they existed! My son suggested ear plugs for the lady and I reckon he was right!

First night, home alone, I managed to tighten the full face gel mask. There was no way it was falling off in the night. It didnt. After removing it at 5am, the marks were still visible at lunch time . The boss sorted it out the following night acknowledging that trying to fit the mask whilst unable to read the instructions was my problem. I didnt tell her that the first time I fitted it, I forgot to take off the specs.

Anyhow we're just a few moments away from the next exciting encounter with the iron lung. And to think; snoring wasnt a problem - I couldnt hear me. Seriously though, I would like to master the thing as Ive been more dog-tired than the dog for a couple of years or so.

Hope you'll have me.

Steve, welcome!
I have a similar sarcastic sense of humor, so I can appreciate your iron lung humor.

As my "dog-tired" fatigue began to fade away, I named my system Grace...as in

amazing Grace,
how sweet the sound,
that saved a wretch like me.
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!

I hope that your therapy is successful beyond your wildest dreams.
Mine has been.
