Great comments, guys (and gals)...

One of the thing I've noticed since being diagnosed with apnea (as I'm sure you all have) is the number of people around you who exhibit many of the same symptoms of apnea. I work as a youth pastor, and I've had at least a half-dozen conversations in the past two weeks with individuals who are dealing with the same tiredness, snoring and lack of energy. No...not everyone is going to be dealing with the apnea issue. But I believe as the CPAP does its job with me, it's going to be seen by others.

In my "business," a changed life is the biggest calling card to people that conversion is real and their life can change for the better. I believe as the weeks and months show the positive physical changes because of the CPAP, I'll be seeing some apnea friends of mine "converted"
as well (can I get an "Amen!"?). :-)
