DIY- How to Make Your CPAP More Comfortable - This Might Get Awkward
Greetings! Today I announce the six winners of the Sydney Grace X Glitzy Fritzy Blessed eyeshadow palette in light or deep. I also want to share a DIY on how I made my CPAP masks much more comfortable. This might get awkward, but if it helps someone, I'm good with it. I've been using the CPAP since March 2nd, 2023. It has been a work in progress. My face is sensitive to the soft silicone on the masks, but this DIY makes it much more comfortable. An added benefit is I do not have mask lines on my face when I wake up.

So glad to see you! Missed you. My husband wears a full cpap mask. The worst thing for him is the indent on his hair on top of his head. He is great at keeping it clean. He purchased a special unit that sanitizes and dries the mask after he washes it . He occasionally uses this with the hose as well. Blessings to my Southern Illinois friend from Central Illinois.

YAY glad to you back 😊 I have the ResMed machine too! I chose the mask.. didn’t expect to since I can be pretty claustrophobic, but I felt like I’d be more likely to fight against something just at my nostrils. Unfortunately I seem to have a small face, and even the small mask can be tricky keeping a good seal. The app hasn’t been showing my data for a few weeks now and that’s pretty annoying too.

Hey MaryEllen! I’m so happy you’re back! I was looking for you last week. Your videos are always interesting even if it doesn’t pertain to me. The C-PAPA for example. I’m so glad to know you figured out something that works well. I thought it had to cover your mouth too. What if you’re a mouth breather? You would have to cover mouth also I imagine. I can’t get over how generous you are in your giveaways. You’re just a sweetheart through and through! Glad you enjoyed your vacation! Welcome back!

Good afternoon Lisa!! Thank you very much, it's good to be back. Believe it or not, they sell tape (shaped like an X) to apply to your mouth to keep it shut!! I know, it surprised me. I used them for a couple of weeks and it trained me to keep my dang mouth shut while I was sleeping. Blessings, and love..MaryEllen
Happy Sunday! I have missed you over the past month, Mary Ellen!❤️

So happy to see you. Thanks for the tips using the CPAP machine. I sleep wonderfully with mine but I have the lines in the the morning so this may alleviate that. I have some velcro wraps from my supplier to try first.

I sew tubes that slide over cheek tubing. I love the Pad-A-Cheek brand on slip on guard for around nostril to keep silicon off lip and cheek. She uses tiny little velcro closures and suede feeling material. lets mask keep a a tight seal but not rub on face.

Welcome back you were missed! Hope your summer plans were fun and you enjoyed time with family. I was surprised that YT did change our names and it is impossible to change it back to our original name. Technology keeps changing and it is hard to keep up. I fractured my humerus on 7-7-23 during a nasty fall during the rain. Still wearing a sling and strap at night. Finally, I start therapy on Monday which should be tough. Again, welcome back you were missed. 😎❤️💄Kathy

I have a machine exactly like that and I love it. My setup is nearly the same, but I need a nasal mask rather than the pillow. That was excellent thinking, and i came to the same idea regarding the fleece, but i didn't want to ruin a whole blanket to do it. Thanks for the idea, ill be trying that out. God bless you and Jim. ❤🙏

You were missed but glad you had some time off. And praying you start feeling better. Haven’t been feeling that good here in Texas but I think it has to do with the Day 14 of over 101% weather. Ugh.

Thanks for your wonderful video. I sure wish this information on CPAP was available years ago.. of course the product was different in the early 2000’s, but there is info here that would have helped my dad. I took care of him the last 3 years after my mom died. He hardly used this life altering technology because he had issues and no one could help adequately. Plus neither of us had the language to describe what the problem was!! That ear/face cushion would have been a game changer. I think the frustration and sleep loss was a killer. Thank you do much!!

Feel better my friend! I'm glad to see your video pop up this morning. Mary's eye shadows look nice but to be honest it has been so hot (27 days over 100 and this past week each day was over 105) that I haven't put on any eye make-up because it melts off. Have a great week!

Good Morning Mary Ellen, I’m so happy to see you are back. Congratulations to the winners, Mary’s pallet is so pretty, I’m loving mine. I don’t know why medications for us cost so much, I have glaucoma and have to use 2 different eye drops and one for dry eyes, they are over $300 each for a 90 day supply and the one for dry eyes is over $800, I hit that donut hole pretty fast. I use Silverscript supplement with my Medicare.❤❤

Good morning Bea. I knew eye meds were expensive, but didn't know they were that expensive!!! This is the first year I hit the donut hole. Every year one of the staff members at the local pharmacy checks ti see which D plan works for me. I didn't anticipate going on Eliquis when she checked it out last year. Thank you very much, it's good to be back. Many bblessings..MaryEllen

@@MaryEllenAfter60 oh wow I didn’t know that the pharmacy could check which D plan works better by the medications we are on. I’ve been on silverscript since I started Medicare 5 years now. You think CVS or Walgreens would do that, guess I can check with them next time I need to pickup a prescription. Thank you.🥰
