[tri-med] C-Pap

Hello all!  Well, we just got home from our sleep study to get Elanor on
c-pap.  I think I wrote about it a few months ago.  We finally got our
appointment and everything went well!  We should be getting a machine of
our own soon.

I was wondering if anyone could give me advice on what type of masks
anyone on the list may use.  Elanor has a cleft palate and is a big
mouth breather, so she needs a mask that fits over both her nose and
mouth.  The tech we worked with suggested we play around with masks, and
to let her know what we find out so she can help other little ones who
need c-pap.

Anyone have any advice (yes, I know that's a dangerous question on the
list!) about masks or any other things concerning c-pap?  Any websites
or literature that anyone knows about?

Thanks!
