You think she needs you

[cyrano]

Circumstantial evidence leads me to believe that the breathing machine is in fact of use. I find myself feeling nowhere near as overwhelmed as usual this week by the duties involved in being kittymommy and what other assorted sundry chores fall in my jurisdiction while the housemate is basking in the holiday sun.
In other news, the Cure mix disc has three versions of "Just Like Heaven" currently. If I cannot find anything to replace at least one of them before press time, I may rename the disc from "Hard to tell Poison from the Cure" to "Just Like the Cure".

I actually have a bi-pap--apparently the pressure required is so high that if it stayed constant (the 'C') then I couldn't exhale. I have the pillows, which I'm told are more comfortable than the mask, and a hydrating tank that I keep filled with filtered water to keep my membranes from drying in the night. I recommend this unit highly.
I keep hoping that eventually I'll find a 'silver bullet' that will make a dramatic change and everything will be better. But so far I'm still in charge of making the change. (As is obvious from the fact that I've had the machine for six months and am just now deciding that there are visible differences in my behavior.)
It look a few weeks (close to a month) to get used to the thing, and to stop waking up in the middle of the night. I think the trick was adjusting to sleeping on my back as opposed to trying *not* to. Every time I'd roll over, the hose would tug slightly and it would wake me up.
Some people complain about the noise, but I haven't had any trouble with that. But I often sleep with music on, and I live next to 101.
Ummmm. I can't think of anything else offhand. I think you should just come over and spend the night so you can get some first hand experience. (:

1. Thanks for the review! I'm so nervous about the idea of getting the machine, but I'm also sick and tired of never getting high-quality rest no matter how long I sleep.

2. >>"I'm still in charge of making the change"

What change?

3. You're naughty! :>

1. Yeah, I'm hoping it has more dramatic results for you.

2. The change in me, where I feel better and live a fuller life and all that happy crappy.

3. I am a Libertine. THat's what my business card says. (: And somehow you continue to resist my charms!
