Row C (pap)

Who’s the last person you want sitting next to you on the plane? It’s the guy with the cpap machine! I know. I’m part of the problem. You see us in line, running our cpap cases through the scanner. We’re everywhere. One time I was in line for the scanner, and there were three of us cpappers in a row.  Yeah, it’s great we get to (have to?) take our cpaps on board, but there’s no place on the plane to plug them in. And the flight attendants never have distilled water in their refreshment carts when they come down the aisle anyways. (No, you can’t put Sprite in a cpap.) So we don’t get to cpap on the plane and, while the plane soars, we snore. Loudly. Violently. Snoring like a banshee.

There’s an obvious solution here. If the airlines would let us cpappers use those drop down oxygen masks they love to tell us about then maybe that would stop the snoring. The other solution would be for all of us cpappers to be in one section of the plane. That’s a possibility!

If that happens, and you find yourself sitting in row C (pap), better pack some plugs.
