SLEEP
Does your husband fall asleep just as the action heats up? Does he fall asleep
during his favorite TV show? During meetings? At the wheel? Those symptoms,
along with excessive snoring may mean he suffers sleep apnea, a problem that
interrupts normal sleep and can lead to much more serious complications.

disorders in both children and adults. There are more than 50 sleep disorders
