CPAP Machine & Prayers needed

[Guest guest]

Need opinions..I have a brand new *used two nights* CPAP machine..My

insurance paid there part and I have to pay the remaining $600....Here are my

questions....

Do most insurances not cover the CPAP's 100% and would it be cheesy to try to

sell it to someone else who like me their insurance doesnt cover the whole

machine....

Sounds good to me but my brain is fried...

ALSO MY BROTHER IN LAW IS IN REAL NEED OF SOME PRAYERS...

My 36 year old brother in law had TWO massive heart attacks Friday night. We

have been at the hospital in CCU all weekend. Things are looking better but

the artery that was blocked was the main coronary artery *which supplies 60% of

the oxygen to the heart* and they dont know how much damage he is gonna have

to his heart from the oxygen loss...All weekend he has been on TOTAL

ventilators and Heart pumping machines...Today they were able to take him off

the heart

pumping machine and HOPEFULLY the ventilator will be able to come out tonight.

We are waiting for the results for the echogram to see what the damage was to

his heart....All prayers are GREATLY needed...Thanks

His name is Todd ...

Also, while we were there the people next to us had their mother in icu and

she has been there for a month now from a bowel obstruction after WLS....it

burst...is bowel obstruction commen?? what are the symptoms/? IM SCARED...I will

be 4 weeks post tomorrow...

Thanks

Crystal, my prayers are with you and your family...I have only heard

of one person that was hospitalized with bowel obstruction and the

only difference that I know of is that she had the duodenal switch.

Now, I don't know if that had anything to do with it, but she is fine

now. She was about 9 months out when this happened. Again, my prayers

and best wishes are with you.
