His wife, Linda, could only dream of peaceful nights as she tossed and turned, trying to drown out the symphony of snores. After countless midnight elbow jabs and a few too many cups of chamomile tea, they decided it was time to visit Dr. Sleepwell, the local sleep specialist.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Sleepwell diagnosed Harold with obstructive sleep apnea and suggested he use a CPAP machine. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s simple,&rdquo; he said, &ldquo;just think of it as your personal nighttime buddy.&rdquo; Little did Harold know that his buddy would come with more complications than a soap opera plot twist.<\/p>\n<p>On the first night, Harold strapped on his CPAP mask, which felt like he was preparing for liftoff in a spaceship. But then, he remembered the doctor&#8217;s other advice: &ldquo;You can also use supplemental oxygen.&rdquo; With a little bit of duct tape and a lot of determination, Harold managed to attach the oxygen tank to his CPAP machine. It was a sight to behold&mdash;a cross between a sci-fi movie and a DIY disaster.<\/p>\n<p>As he drifted off to sleep, he imagined himself as an astronaut floating through space, oxygen flowing through his mask. Unfortunately, Harold&rsquo;s dreams were soon interrupted by the sound of hissing air and a loud popping noise. Apparently, the combination of CPAP and oxygen was not designed for a man who thrashes about in his sleep like a fish out of water.<\/p>\n<p>Linda, who had been peacefully snoring herself, woke up with a start, only to see Harold wrestling with the machine. &#8220;Do you need help, or should I call NASA?&#8221; she joked. After a few adjustments and some unintentional acrobatics, they finally found a way to make it work&mdash;though Harold felt more like a steampunk character than an astronaut.<\/p>\n<p>As the nights went by, Harold became an expert at using his CPAP machine with oxygen. He even created a catchy tune about it: &ldquo;To breathe or not to breathe, that is the question!&rdquo; He might not have been the next pop star, but at least he was now the serenading king of sleep apnea.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re curious about how to tackle snoring or want to learn more about sleep health, check out this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.verywellhealth.com\/snoring-7494848\" target=\"_blank\">excellent resource<\/a> for pregnancy and home insemination.
