OWLS / Legacy

Oh Patty!   Did you start sobbing too when you were lost?   I was SO freaked out.   I was ready to just find my way to I-5 Northbound and go home.

I also told the support staff that the directions were WORTHLESS and that I'd been driving around for over 30 minutes, hopelessly lost.    I do hope they WILL correct it...SWMC is so easy to find if you take the correct exit off I-5.
I noticed a lot of typos in their literature too...I wonder who does their proofing? 

I sure did! The zoo parking lot was almost deserted. I was sitting in my car with tears running down my face - must have looked totally pitiful, as a man walked up and asked it he could help.

I got directions to get back on track, but it was horrible.

I'm afraid I gave the wrong impression.  I AM having my surgery at Good Sam, and I AM going through OWLS, and I was VERY impressed with Dr. Halpin.

It was the bogus DIRECTIONS to SWMC in my confimation that got me lost and made me go nuts!   

The sleep study thing annoys me but I'll do it if I must.   I know that there is no way I'll be able to sleep with a mask or nose pillows (what the heck are nose pillows???).   Of course, when my husband starts sawing old growth, I could always slap it on his face!  

Dr. Halpin did say that if we were out of the area of Legacy we could have it done locally.  Since I'm almost 100 miles away, I'll have it done here in Olympia.

I really love hearing about the great experiences at Good Sam!

 Nose pillows are kinda like oxygen nasal prongs-----only they have a soft gel pillow around the prong to close off your nose so the air can be blow into your nose instead of leaking back out around the nasal prong.

It feels like you're driving down the road with your head hanging out the window.

I guess mine has to be at a very high pressure so it's more annoying than most.

I'm going back in to see if it can be adjusted.

I've had one for over 12 years and got used to the "fighter pilot model" as Tony Soprano called Uncle Junior's. If I roll over so that there's a small leak in the seal, DH complains about the whooshing. Yeah, like he can hear it over his snoring...
