when you wake up at 3:00 in the morning, and you tear your CPAP mask off, and you only then look at the time, and you can't put the mask back on, because your fingers don't work, and you try to decide whether you should stay awake for 3 hours before you wake your spouse, or wake her now, cuz if you go back to sleep you might never wake up, well, then, you know just what it's like: quadriplegia.
