My cousin’s daughter had the same thing. She just had her toncils out.
believe me I have the same issue where I sleep either good bad or not at all. Sometimes it’ll be three days before I finally get some sleep. It is possible.
He sleeps once every few days?? How is that even possible?
only about 60% of adults with OSA are overweight. yes, overweight does make it worse, but other people should not make the mistake of thinking they can’t have OSA.
I’m happy to see this video …
He’s fortunate. I have a family member with sleep apnea who sleeps once every few days & needs this contraption with a mask & distilled water.
My son has the same thing and he is 11 months.
He had surgery was he was 4. But the year previously the symptoms were getting worse and worse. He would wake us up down the hall in our bedroom with the snores, and when he would hold his breath, it would make you want to shake him to get him to breathe again. Clearly at such a young age…it is anatomical, the enlargement of the soft tissues and adenoids in the back of the throat. He is in no way overweight like most adults with obstructive sleep apnea.
when did you find out he had OSA?
We have great results~ He is up and awake in the morning, much more energy.
My son has the same thing! He is 13 and set for a Tosillectomy and adoinectomy. Did he he have good results? Good for you getting the jump on it, we discovered it very late at 13 years. Good to see I love kids
Very cute!!
May God bless him.
Very precious.
Surgery corrected the problem
what has been done to him?
God Bless my little nephew!! I’m so happy that he can sleep peacefully now!! I love you Mathias!!

WOW, I cried watching him sleep silently! What a blessing! I am so happy for him! Thanks for sharing that video!
