BUMPER STICKERS - ROUND 2 PLACE YOUR VOTE

Round 2 of the Bumper Stick idea. I have gone through and sorted the ideas submitted and put the most “attention getting” phrases on this list. Again, keep in mind, the idea is to get the attention of the general public, not the educated *PAP user who understands the Sleep Apnea verbiage.

Please review each numbered phrase and then place your vote, in your order of preference, for the top 3 of your liking that you feel will attract the greatest attention. (No hanging chads allowed)

Thank you to each and every contributor.

Here is the list:

1. APNEA – IT WILL LEAVE YOU BREATHLESS !

2. GOT IT ???? SLEEP APNEA !

3. NOT SLEEPING ???? ASK YOUR DOCTOR ABOUT SLEEP APNEA !!!

4. WAKE UP !!!! YOU MAY HAVE SLEEP APNEA !!!!

5. ALWAYS TIRED ??? GET A SLEEP TEST !!!

6. SLEEP APNEA IS A SILENT KILLER !!!

7. SNORING ISN'T ALWAYS WHAT YOU THINK IT IS !!!!!

8. I’M UNDER A LOT OF PRESSURE WHEN I SLEEP !!!

9. SLEEP APNEA WILL KILL YOU IF NOT TREATED

10. SLEEPING IS NICE – BUT NOT HERE

11. SLEEP APNEA IS A REAL THREAT TO YOUR LIFE

12. DIE PEACEFULLY ASLEEP – WHILE YOUR PASSANGERS DIE SCREAMING

13. SLEEP APNEA TAKES YOUR BREATH AWAY – LITERALLY !!!!

14. ALWAYS TIRED ???? YOU MAY HAVE SLEEP APNEA

15. TIRED ? NODDING OFF ?? YOU MAY NEED A NEW BED PARTNER !!
SLEEP APNEA IS A KILLER

16. SNORRRRRRRING COULD BE SLEEP APNEA

How about "Fall asleep in bed, not in your car"

4, 14 and 10. Just one minor thing - whichever is chosen, there should be some mention of apnea, so that anyone who is curious can follow up on that term. For instance, change 10 to something like "APNEA: SLEEPING IS NICE – BUT NOT HERE"

9. Short, truthful & to the point
Then 6 & 11.
I lost my beautiful sister. I understand the need for a catchy phrase but so many people who's families & friends tell them they have it think it's 'not THAT bad'. YES IT IS so let's drive it home w/a warning not a 'warm & fuzzy'. Leave that to saving dolphins & puppies. Thanx.
