My name is Chris Granger and I live in China Spring, Texas.

I find my Inspire therapy one of the best things I've done for my health. I travel extensively for work and I find it so easy now to have my little remote instead of having my CPAP machine. It also has saved me time when going through the TSA security line. It is so convenient to open my travel case and pull out my little remote when I'm ready to go to sleep. It also packs easily in my backpack. In my retirement, my wife and I plan to travel extensively in our camper across the country, and now I don't have to worry about bring a CPAP along. I also find it liberating that I don't have to do the maintenance associated with a CPAP machine every day.

Interests: Classic rock vinyl’s LP, Vintage audio equipment, pickleball, camping , hiking and personal financial coaching

Why I chose Inspire therapy to treat my sleep apnea: I travel extensively for work and it was a burden to have to travel with my CPAP. Also, I was finding it very hard to stay compliant with my CPAP at night. Many nights I was waking up and taking off my mask or it was coming off during the middle of the night

In a few short words, I would describe Inspire therapy as: I find my Inspire therapy one of the best things I've done for my health. As I mentioned above, I travel extensively for work and I find it so easy now to have my little remote instead of having my CPAP machine. It also has saved me time when going through the TSA security line. It is so convenient to just open my travel case and pull out my little remote when I'm ready to go to sleep. It also packs so easily in my backpack l. I will be retiring soon, and my wife and I will be traveling extensively in our camper across the country and now I don't have to worry about bring a CPAP along. I also find it so liberating that I don't have to do all of the maintenance associated with a CAPA machine every day.

Why am I a patient ambassador? I have been an adult educator all of my life and I love talking and sharing my experiences. I have been in the health care industry throughout my adult career and did a lot of research on the inspire system. After my research, I was convinced that inspire was right for me and I wanted to be able to share my experience with others to help them through their journey - CPAP free. The Inspire system has truly changed my life. I look forward to sharing my experience with the Inspire Implant and how it can help others.
