Re: I was Smited! And it keeps getting worse...

Hey EZ, Sorry to hear about that. Sometimes the behicle is of more value you as a running vehicle than the insurance would give you.
I has a friend that was driving home from work. A tree branch (More like 1/2 a tree) blew down in front of him. He flip his car and was killed. He had just gotten married 6 months before and had a 14 year-old sun. After his death, I looked up news stories and found out that this happens a lot more than anyone ever suspects.

Mikdee, Glad you have a CPAP. I was falling asleep while driving to work around 50 times one my way in (1hr ride). I would actually fall asleep and have a dream in seconds. I could barely function. My CPAP sure helps. I am sure glad I never had an accident or killed anyone. I didn't even know what a CPAP was until I saw the doctor.​

Scoop, it's so scary, & sad, when you hear about these sudden shocking freak accidents, especially if it's a friend or relative, "There but for the grace of God go I",,, Thank God I was ok, just had a little bruise on my nose, & upper ribcage, from the airbag,(where my glasses hit) & seatbelt, (glad I had both though! ;)) but, I mourned the loss of my truck, no way I could fix it, a bent frame, and book value, lost about $3k. As you say, I didn't have any concept about sleep apnea, till afterward :rolleyes: it's only mild, but, then again, having diabetes makes it worse.

Please pardon me ezmobee, I'm sorry, I'm not trying to put your troubles down, I feel for you, and can relate,,, This topic just gave me a reason to put this pent up story out there, and maybe get some relief. I wish you all the Best!
