Wonder if it was as high as 7 cm. Poor baby.

Once you get your hubby "adjusted" are you going to tell him or just let sleeping dogs lay?
Or in this case...let sleeping hubby just go merrily on his way with his "minimal" pressure?

I won't tell him a thing until I get him all adjusted. Did you look at his picture? He looks so sweet and normal. I think I need to find him a new mask. I can't wait to start that. The man might as well wear a uniform. Nothing but Levis 501 and shirts with snaps. Wonder what new mask he will settle on.

Stormy, I could tell you some of my stories too but your's are much funnier! Just one question, does cutie pie know you posted his photo??

He would be flattered if he knew. Let's not tell him. He loves having his picture taken. I hate having mine taken. I just never expected to get this old. I used to be so young.

Nothing wrong with that. My husband is in either jeans or bib overalls and cowboy boots and yes...shirts with snaps are preferred. He does have one nice pair of khaki pants that he might wear once a year.

It doesn't matter where we go he wears the same thing. At my grandson's wedding there he was wearing his uniform. I think the bride's family thought he was just passing by and stopped in.

Some men are such babies, they get a sniffle and they are dieing They don't seem to handle pain too well either.

Hmm can you tell I've had to put up with a Moaning Michael recently.

Bless your heart.

I am so happy. He is doing so good and I am so proud of his progress. It seems like he looks forward to me putting his mask on him and tucking him in bed at night.

Now on to the next step, teaching him how to put water in the tank and putting his mask on by himself.

Good luck with that one, Stormy!

That's been our ritual for over 4yrs and it's become sort of a loving,intimate end to our day!

You are so sweet. Maybe I should take some nice lessons from you. Really I just want him to do this for himself in case I am not always around to do it for him.

Hubby may play dumb but don't worry, he's taking it all in! I had to stay in the ER overnight a few months ago(bad reaction to a new med) and my friend had to stay with him. He showed her exactly how to set up the machine and how to adjust the mask and check the water level! The only thing he didn't remember was to turn on the oxygen concentrator so he slept without 02 for the night,no problem. He doesn't know I'm on to him but it makes me feel better if there's another emergency.
