Wow..... that is amazing! I am at 1256 in just under a year, I'd have to be writing many more posts a day to come close to that! Slinky is a treasure trove of information.... keep it coming, but if you need to take a break, we'll understand!!

Thank you for being you, Slinky. Your words that day, very nearly three years ago now, made a big difference in my life.

Congratulations Slinky!!!

I know you have become one of my favorite people here on this forum (along with a few others)!! I read your posts, sometimes, I admit they are over my head when it comes to the "fancy" machines as I only need a plain apap. Yet, I always learn something from your posts.

It was your constant harping and posting about
the wonders of Resmed that brought me over.
It changed my therapy so much for the better.

Thanks! for all you do.
