Lindsey, it sounds like you had a good weekend despite the rain and Scott's bad mood. It's always fun to catch up with old friends, isn't it!

Betsi, the retirement party sounds like fun. How is Mike doing with the C-Pap machine. Gary was supposed to use one, but he hated it. He used it off and on (more off than on) for years. It definitely helps them to sleep better and it also takes a strain off the heart which is caused by stopping all the apenic episodes. The heart has to speed up and slow down all night when you are having apnea episodes and that puts a strain on the heart. I don't think Gary ever believed that, but it is true. I think Gary's heart failure would have been improved if he'd used the C-Pap consistently, but he just wouldn't. I hope Mike uses it!
