A tale of two sisters

Michelle and Cheryl are sisters who both have respiratory problems. They shared their stories with us.

Michelle told us,
“I have suffered with COPD for a long while now, and went through stages of low blood oxygen levels, poor quality of sleep, and not enough energy to do the things I wanted to do.

About 4 years ago, I met Neil at a Breathe Easy group meeting, and got to talk about his SoeMac machine. I immediately bought one, and have not looked back since.

I use it every night and it is a wonderful addition to my life. My oxygen levels go up by 3% overnight, and I sleep well and wake up refreshed, and with energy to start my days. I still have to rest regularly, but I am so much more positive than I have been. It is not a miracle cure, but has certainly been a great benefit to me, living with COPD.

I recommended SoeMac to my sister Cheryl, and she also has one, and swears by it. We have been on holidays together, and we both take our SoeMac with us, as it is small and easy to pack.

Thank you for helping us live our lives a little better.”

Michelle’s sister Cheryl told us,
“As a person who has had cystic fibrosis, my lung function has always been under 40%. 9 years ago I was lucky to receive a double lung transplant, my lung function was down at 17% and I was on nasal cannula oxygen 24/7. I was on 4 litres and my oxygen saturation was 90%

My sister Michelle got a SoeMac machine, and it was helping her. I had been waking up often during the night and waking up with a headache in the morning. So I decided to buy one as well.

Now, I am sleeping most of the night and I have no headaches. My oxygen stats are 99% when I wake up and during the day they are 96%. It comes with me everywhere, staying with family, friends and has even been on a cruise to Norway this year. If I had caught covid on the ship I knew I had my SoeMac machine to help with my breathing straight away.

When I did have covid I used SoeMac during the day too. It definitely helped relieve my symptoms.”

A lovely testimonial received from Canada

Dear Neil,

Please accept my sincere apologies for the delay in letting you know how the SoeMac has been working for me. I am pleased to say, I have only good things to report.

It really is the most fantastic invention as it has helped my long-standing shortness of breath, particularly at night when it is completely eliminated.

For the first time I have full comfortable sleep throughout the night. When I wake up in the morning, I ache less. Possibly this is because of the good rest I am getting at night.

Now, I only get shortness of breath during the day when I cannot use the SoeMac. I wish there was a way that I could carry the SoeMac in my pocket to use during the day.

I highly recommend the SoeMac for anyone with shortness of breath.

I cannot thank you enough. Please feel free to use as little or as much of this email on your website as my review.

May God bless you.

Sincerely,
Dr FK Abou-keer

A SoeMac family gift

Mary Reekie describes how her son's SoeMac gift has helped her husband to live, sleep and breathe better..

“My son Andrew purchased a SoeMac machine for his father after he had been admitted to hospital on three occasions with dangerously low oxygen levels due to breathing difficulties. He was twice at death’s door and, at his worst, his oxygen level was 52. Since acquiring your wonderful machine, his oxygen levels have remained stable between 90-95 and it has been truly life changing. Before, he could not venture out when there was a slight breeze but now he manages a walk along the promenade most days and the wind doesn’t make him breathless. We even managed a family holiday abroad in October and of course, SoeMac came too!! It is amazing how it has transformed our lives. Thank you so much and we will continue to recommend it as best we can.”

With heartfelt thanks,

Mrs Mary Reekie

"SoeMac goes a long way to improve one's quality of life" - Raymond

Raymond, who has poor breathing, shared his experience of using SoeMac.

"Thank you for the opportunity to return my unit for a free service. Now as you will know there are lots of different types of breathing issues and although most of your owners of SoeMac’s use them during sleeping hours, I found as a light sleeper, a degree of difficulty staying asleep due to the slight hum and the light coming from my unit. After trying ear plugs and an eye mask, which didn’t really work because they were uncomfortable, I realised that I had never had a problem breathing during sleeping.

So my solution to the problem was to place the unit beside my computer in the study, where as a retired senior citizen I spend quite a bit of my time. The unit worked great for me in this position, because since I installed it, I have been able to get up from my computer with no breathlessness.

I would recommend SoeMac to anyone who suffers with their breathing. We know it is not a cure but it goes a long way to improve one’s quality of life.

I cannot thank you and your staff enough."

Best regards, Raymond Quinn
