Last night, I managed to break my CPAP mask, or rather, one of the two clips that attach to the mask on the headgear. Fortunately, I have several older masks that still work, more or less. As luck would have it, the place from which I buy more CPAP supplies announced a sale this morning, so I could buy a replacement set of headgear and also restock on other supplies. Annoyingly, my Healthcare Savings Account debit card, which works in most places and even worked when I was in the UK, is not accepted by CPAP.com. However, I was able to buy the supplies with one of my ordinary credit cards and reimburse myself from my HSA account, so it's mainly just an extra bit of annoyance, and I'll have new headgear in a few days. It was probably time to buy a new set even if the clip hadn't broken, as I've had this set for more than a year now.

Fortunately, the clip didn't break while I was traveling, as it would have been a little bit harder to get it replaced there, and I depend upon that CPAP to get sufficient sleep.
