Jamie's Sleep Study

Jamie went in last night at 8:45. They hooked up a bunch of probes and told him to get comfortable. yeah, right. Then they monitored him sleeping. He came home at 6:15 this morning and said he has to get a CPAP which I understand to be a machine with a mask that he would wear when he sleeps to help him breath. Apparently at one point last night, his oxygen level fell below 70% 40 times in one minute.

    Jamie,
    Your Uncle Ken, Uncle Earl Wayne,
    Uncle Herb, and cousin Cheryl all wear the masks. I have it too but they told me if I slept on my sides in (my) case I would not have to wear the mask. Looks like
    heredity!

    spooks me!
