Goodbye to Sleep Apnea
Back in mid October, 2020 I was on my “tail end” of a 3+ month journey flying, biking, and camping across the NW in my airplane. I happened to base myself for my final stop before returning to “reality” at Tonasket, WA Airport which is very remote, with little plane traffic. This became a GREAT place for me to utilize its small pilot lounge for roughly nine days where I did some exploring. I was mainly getting myself prepared for the following year, writing down all the tasks I needed to accomplish, along with setting some of my goals! Having access to internet and cell service, this place also allowed me to get some business accomplished as well!
Anyhow, after settling in at this particular airport for a number of days, suddenly a newer Cessna 182 landed and I witnessed it being tied down, then this gentleman retrieved another car that had been parked next to the airport courtesy vehicle. Having no clue, I ended up going out and introducing myself and guessed that he was a physician and flew in to assist some patients in this remote town. Sure enough, he replies that I had “nailed it”. I then asked his specialty, it blew me away when he said that he’s a sleep physician specialist! Keep in mind I was writing down tasks to be completed this coming year, and the NUMERO UNO item was my HEALTH, particularly seeking weight reduction and the ability to overcome apparently a “hard core” issue of sleep apnea. I explained to him, who I learned went by Dr. Jak, that I have been battling sleep apnea for over 3 years now and haven’t been able to overcome issue. He immediately offered to help me out, and that Dr. Jak did! After returning to the airport taking care of his patients, he had a CPAP machine, along with multiple masks to utilize whichever one fit best and or worked most effectively. He then provided me his professional input on how to utilize this equipment. How much did all this cost me? Not a cent. Dr. Jak was all about helping an individual get HEALTHIER by providing all of his equipment and professional directions without taking a cent from me.
Because of this UNBELIEVABLE UNEXPECTED MEETING and Dr. Jak’s GENEROSITY & CARE, he has impacted my health and life ever since this unexpected exchange took place in mid October and could not be any more GRATEFUL for what all Dr. Jak has done towards improving my LIFE, where I have more ENERGY, FOCUS/ALERTNESS, and ability to lose weight due to getting the oxygen needed-along with better “deep” sleep!!!
In conclusion, you can understand WHY I endorse Dr. Jak 100% towards utilizing his knowledge, professionalism, and CARE if needing help towards sleeping issues one might possibly have, as Dr. Jak has made a HUGE IMPACT in my life. Thank you so very much for ALL YOU HAVE DONE FOR ME DR. JAK!!!
