Guest guest Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 I agree with . Don't put her health above yours. She needs to take responsibility for her illness.

Guest guest Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Usually the heavy breathing is before she falls asleep, but she's still very much awake. The only thing she does when she's asleep is snore, but I can hang up without fear of being yelled at. I'm in the process of getting some earbud headphones again soon, I'll try playing some music or one of the relaxing apps I got for my iPod, my current headphones wouldn't work in this situation. I'll also try and look into this sleep apnea, maybe I can help her out in the process of helping myself. Thank you both for all your help! > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I'm currently in a long-distance relationship with someone, > so > > > > > > obviously our only time together is over the phone.
