After fighting the idea for months, I started sleeping with a CPAP about a year ago. I still hate it. What an aggrevation to sleep with a hose? I do sleep better. There is no argument about that. Jerry likes it because I sleep quieter. I do refuse to let anyone see me in the mask. Aging is not pretty so why add to it by having a large gray hose hanging from your nose? It is humiliating.
My sleep is also disturbed by light so I keep an eye mask by the bed as well. When I wake up to the sun, I take off the CPAP mask and put on the eye mask. My grandkids have become quite fond of the eye mask idea and now have their own. That is just how we roll.
(Shout out to my friend, Lisa Dreher, whose promotional coaster is also by my bed.)
