Emma is joined by Dr. Pam Sheets, a retired doctor who embarked upon a palate expansion called the 'EASE' procedure with Dr. Kasey Li. Pam was able to completely cure her sleep apnea following her procedure.

In this episode:

* Pam noticed that she was very tired a lot of the time and had nasal congestion.

* Stereotypes playing into Pam's thinking that she could not possibly have sleep apnea as a petite otherwise healthy woman.

* Orthodontic extractions and retractive braces and headgear Pam wore 24/7 for over a year as a teen.

* Pam describes reading James Nestor's book "Breath" and "Jaws" by Sandra Kahn on the link between jaw development and sleep-disordered breathing.

* Seeing an airway dentist and an orthodontist who specialized in airway issues.

* Pam describes having a sleep study showing she had sleep apnea and consulting doctors using telemedicine.

* Pam describes how her orthodontist recommended a surgical solution with an oral and maxillofacial surgeon.

* Starting CPAP treatment in the meantime while considering surgical options.

* Reasons Pam chose the EASE procedure with Dr. Kasey Li.

* Pam explains the EASE protocol in detail.
