Sleep Apnea Study
Are you familiar with a condition called Sleep Apnea?
"Sleep apnea is a common sleeping disorder that causes frequent pauses in breathing during sleep and is often accompanied by snoring. About 6% of adults in the U.S. suffer from moderate to severe forms of the condition, and 17% have less severe forms."

It's a frightening condition for those of us who live with the sufferers. I wake out of a sound sleep when Mark stops breathing. Which, when you think about it, is pretty amazing. I sleep (or I used to) like the dead; nothing wakes me up.
The information I've read, over the years, indicates that snoring may well be one symptom of sleep apnea. For those of you who live with a snorer, you may want to read: Study: To Sleep Better, Perchance to Live Longer
