Last night was not quite as good of a night with my BIPAP equipment compared to other nights. A friend showed me a web site that offers a different device that would make all the straps around my head unnecessary. The only thing I might still need then is the chin strap. Admittedly, though, this is the most troubling piece of equipment I need to put on. Supposed to keep me from having my mouth open and throat from drying. Last night, though, I was awake long enough to know my mouth was closed but still felt a little dry throat. I'm not giving up though! I'll keep trying to up the humidity setting.
The greatest benefit I have realized so far is a lot less post-nasal sinus problems. The acquisition of this in my life has been worth it just to see that improvement.
Pray if it is God's will my specialist will approve this alternate breathing device so I won't have so much on my face and head all night.

Dear Lord,
I pray that this specialist will approve of this alternate breathing device so Clarence won't have such an annoying device on the face and head. Please shed your harmonious light on this situation and grant Clarence the determination to keep after this.
I ask this in your holy name, Father.
Amen.

Lord Jesus, please let the specialist come up with something that is not so bad. Lord, please bless Clarence with a good night of sleep. Thank You and Praise Your name Jesus for the progress that he has made so far. In this I ask in Your wonderful name,Jesus.Amen.
