My New Lease on Life


In recent years, my husband has become a snorer. It didn't use to happen at all. Now he's got it BAD, and with each day it's growing exponentially worse.

It's not that cute stuff you hear in the movies, oh no. This snoring will rattle the tiles right off our roof! It doesn't even help if I sleep out on the couch. I can hear him ANYWHERE. Ugh. Plus, you can hear the airflow completely stop as he continually chokes on himself and stirs and flip-flops all night long because of it. (I know, I know, it's sleep apnea...) Bottom line is, he's not getting the proper rest he needs, and I'm certainly not either.

Well, well well. One day a surprise package shows up in the mail! Jason ordered one of THESE LITTLE BABIES without even telling me...


You have to heat it up in boiling water, then it molds to your bite for a perfect fit. Then you wear it all night. It basically holds your lower jaw forward just a LITTLE BIT which in turn keeps your tongue out of the back of your throat.

People, let me just tell you it works!!!!!!!!!!! He does not snore now. AT ALL. Not even a little. I am THRILLED to mail off 60 bucks to these people once our free 30-day trial is over. (Let me also just say this whole thing is my genuine opinion. I am not being paid to say this, nor does the company even know I am doing it.)

Indescribable JOY.

OH Happy Day! (or happy night!). I'm so glad you both will be getting the rest you need!

Hooray! I love that you're going to get good sleep now! And $60 for a mail-in thing is so much better than a sleep study for sleep apnea!

We might have to try those in our house. Thanks for the info.

Hooray! John doesn't usually snore unless he's super tired and when he does I can't stand it. I usually punch him to wake him up, so I feel your pain. But I grind my teeth in my sleep. My dental hygienist told me I need to get something similar to one of those - same idea just it doesn't pull my lower jaw forward. I haven't got it yet. I'm not sure how well I'll sleep with something like that in my mouth. Does it bother Jason to sleep with something like that in his mouth at night???

How nice of him to surprise you, although I have to admit that would be the strangest package!

Now I know what to put in somebody's stocking at Christmas...if I can wait that long.
