If the quality of both of your lives is better with him ON CPAP, that's important. But if it's not, that's important too. Right now you both need rest!!
(((hugs))) to both you and Mike, Dori. My prayers are w/you and Mike as well.

Oh Dori, I'm so sorry to hear about Mike's situation. Please take care of yourself and get help where you can.
Sleep well and live better!

Dori, it's so clear how very much Mike loves you. In refusing to wear the mask, he is trying to reduce the burden he is putting on your own health. I cannot possibly know what it's like to be in your shoes or Mikes, though I think I might know what your kids are going through, having been in a similar situation with my own father. I can also see that you are both so much in love. You are like swans -- so very dedicated to one another. I'm sending good thoughts your way and hope you will remember that we're all thinking of you and Mike.
