dusty I guess that's good news, huh? Or is she like my husband and doesn't like animals? In that case, uh oh! - VickiNumbers wrote:

In all actuality, OSA is OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNEA. A sleep disorder where a person stops breathing for a period of time lasting from seconds to minutes. These abnormal periods where breathing ceases are called episodes of apnea. Apnea episodes cause a decrease in the amount of oxygen circulating in the blood and brain which causes the individual to wake up momentarily - just enough to start breathing again. This can occur up to 30 times per hour during the night. As a result, persons suffering from sleep apnea frequently complain of not feeling rested (even right when they've arisen from bed), daytime sleepiness, headaches, and a multitude of other complaints. OSA is known to increase a persons risk for heart disease, stroke, and congestive heart failure. Bet you didn't expect that, didja? Can you believe I would turn down Obstructive Sleep Apnea? What an opportunity, right? What I had intended to type was OWA - Orange Winged Amazon. The 'W' and 'S' are right next to each other on my (very unusual) keyboard. Sorry to cause such confusion! LOL! | |

| Didn't mean to! Honest! As a result, I'm moving all posts about Obstructive Sleep Apnea to the "Non-Parrot Discussions" Section... Mainly because I think it's an important topic, but also because it has nothing to do with Moluccan (or Goffin) Cockatoos! | |

Jules, LOL! The original thread was from Aug - Dusty posted an update (above) that I was responding to True, Allie has me sleep deprived, but I'm really trying hard to stay "sorta" current with things! LOL! | |

Who was whistling? Einstein was in a cuddle sleep, and as soon as he heard it, his head cocked up, and he starting screaming jingle bells. | |
