Hi Bee, looks like I am talking to myself again! I left my reply on my own page instead of yours. I live in Wheat Ridge.

Hey Bee-girl!! Thanks for the friend-back!!
I needed to talk with you 'cause you're on a short list of SG members I'm cntacting for short-term site support, on behalf of Mike.

You may or may not know that Mike and his wife, Melinda, are expecting their first baby, a little daughter, any minute!! There will probably be a C-section in the next day or two.

He does NOT want this info out on SG till he's ready to announce it himself.

Mike's concerned about SG being covered as he'll be offsite late tonight 10/29 for possibly a few days. We talked today and agreed that I ask a few select members to help monitor things till his return. (No admin involved--just an increased awareness of being certain that members' concerns are responded to in a timely manner. Same thing a lot of us do, but with a little more attention to not letting anything go unanswered or ignored). Anyway, I'm checking to see who of the really dedicated, helpful folks might be willing and/or able to hrlp out so he can relax and tend to his new family. I have 13 people on my hoped-for list, one of whom is you, IF you're available.

No one will have full responsibility for it--those of us involved are gonna share it so it's not a burden for anyone. So if you would let me know if you're interested, I'd appreciate it.

Mike's so thrilled with the prospect of having this little girl.....very touching to hear that kind of commitment from a young, first-time daddy......

Thanks for your consideration of this, Bee--several people have already accepted, so I think we can manage just fine. Would love to have your steady hand on board.

Susan McCord :-)

Funny you should mention the raw diet. I was just reading about it online. I mentioned it to my husband and he doesnt think that it would be healthy to give a dog raw meat. But, I may still give it a whirl. I'm fiesty that way....lol. Thanks for your help Bee!!

Jayla will not eat dry food, no matter what we do. We've tried, we've mixed it in with rice and chicken, she eats around it and leaves the dry in the bowl. She wont even eat canned dog food, so the past week that we've had her, I've been making her chicken in rice with a little chicken broth, but Im sure she's not getting the nutrition she needs.

Hi Bee,
Love those names.....we absolutely love her!! She is sooooo affectionate. Can you tell me what you feed yours? She's very finicky when it comes to eating.

Yup, if you've got insurance, your insurance dictates which local DME providers you can use. Just because you bought your CPAP elsewhere does NOT mean that your insurance contracted providers can't or won't provide your masks and other accessories.…

Linda, thanks your your help. When I call Apria, I wil ask them why they did not offer me a payment plan. Good luck!

Hi Candace, Apria is giving me a payment plan for 10 months, after that I will buy it if I still need it. In the mean time, all of the folks here are so helpful they told me the best cpap to get and low and behold, Apria did not give me a newer mode…

Linda, I read your question re: CPAP Machine and Apria. I also am not impressed with them. I have Kaiser and Kaiser will not pay for my equipment. Apria says that I have to pay all costs up front. Are you on a payment plan with Apria. I have severe…

First, let me say, Thank you for going to bat for us. I think you are doing a fantastic job in spreading OSA awareness and providing us with OSA a place to go for support. Apparently there is no connection between a college degree and intelligence,…

You hit the nail on the head. I had a similar experience last year with another organization, The Alzheimer's Association. I ask for permission to pass out a flyer, "Does Sleep Apnea Cause Alzheimer's Disease?," at one of their annual meetings regar…

Then she should say that... Say anything other than the falsehood that the connection between OSA and heart disease isn't sufficiently proven.

I believe that individuals should be free to make decisions for themselves. This goes for the patients and the providers. The patient is free to decide what to do and who to pay for what services. The provider is free to decide what services he offe…

I agree with your advice,Mike.Once I was treated for a sinus infection,I had replaced everything .Also, it is a good idea to use saline to cleanse the sinuses at least twice daily . You may look into the use of a Nettie Pot,,,,that can throughly cle…

I tried wearing a band aid on the bridge of my nose the other night and it helped, but not enough. Most of the "solutions' that I've found end up causing to much air to leak. I started wearing the bandana (folded in several layers and tied like a he…

I've beeb using Sleep Strip for years. It's a good screening test that correlates pretty well with formal sleep studies. It won't give you a number, but rather ranges from none, to mild, moderate or severe. You still need a doctor's prescription. Ty…
