Day 21: A Month of Birthday Gratitude

This is Trish.

I still don't understand why the pictures are sideways. 

I lost the first post I wrote trying to fix it.

Anyhow - Trish is my Trilogy ventilator.

Thanks to her, I have more energy, less fatigue, better concentration, and I get sick less.

I used to wake up with morning headaches and have fatigue and brain fog. A sleep study showed that my oxygen dipped down to dangerous levels during sleep.

Unfortunately Trish is a hefty, bulky girl, which makes travel more difficult. But she also has an 8 hour battery that helps when the power goes out.

I am grateful for her.

Some of you might be wondering if I have a gender bias when it comes to my medical equipment. But I don't. I have an oxygen concentrator named Oliver. And a cane named Cobalt. But we are hoping if Trish can keep me well-ventilated at night, we can send Oliver off to help someone else.
