With the CPAP machine the problem went away, mine is apnea. What was your in-law's problem ?

When I was in jail, the other inmates complained about my snoring, I said tough. Girlfriend complained about it also, we sleep separately now. Apparently I scared people even in my sleep.

I would fall asleep at work, couldnt control it, almost fell asleep driving a couple of times. One time I fell asleep and nearly fell into a glass pane. What was cool was as one collapsed waking up before hitting the ground and catching ones self.....
