Sleep Apnea Update

Oh the journey that sleep apnea has taken us on...I feel for the people and their spouses that have this!

It's been about 3 weeks since Zach got sleep machine.  (You can read more about that here)

On this day I was SO ecstatic!! For the last year and a half I've dreamt of sleeping better. Our sleep quality was going to go from horrible to excellent, that the sleep machine was our sleep savior and it was going to change our lives in an instant!

Well......a little too optimistic Aimee!

Things got a little worse before they got better. That sounds familiar doesn't it?

Our conversations with people have gone like this:

"Oh yeah, my dad has one of those. He hated it for the first little while. Now he loves it."

"Oh yeah, my uncle has one of those, it took him months to actually sleep with it through thye night."

"Oh yeah, my husband's grandpa's cousin's friend has one of those. He couldn't sleep with it for a long time, now he doesn't go anywhere without it.":

These people weren't joking. We've both gotten worse sleep and less sleep since Zach got this machine!

Masks don't fit/dont work, had exchange them 4 or 5 times. Drool in mask, take it off. Suffocation/panic feeling...take it off....

BUT, there is a light at the end of the tunnel!!

Zach slept with his mask on until 5am last night!!! 5am you guys!!! Unprecedented success!

Watch out, the Charnocks are rested. The world will never be the same.
