My sister has two very healthy, seven year old parakeets in a large cage. Recently, she gave them some wild birdseed because she noticed it was a lot cheaper than a small box of parakeet seed and they took to it right away. However, since then, they have become very noticeably plumper. I couldn't believe it when I saw them. They are loud, bouncy, and happy, and do not act sick in the least, but is this weight gain unhealthy in and of itself? Should she stop the wild birdseed? I've had quite a bit of experience with keets myself, and they do eat a LOT, but don't generally get fat from it. So it's not that they're eating MORE; this has to be an effect from the seed itself. Is this bad? Again, they are acting no different; they just look much plumper.

Updating my GPS Reciever... how much does it cost?

I recieved a Roadmate 760 for Christmas, and so far I enjoy it. I have not used any cds yet as I have been at my wifes family for Christmas the past few days. I have noticed that gas stations that have been put up in the last 2-3 years, and other building such as a big wal-mart and Walgreens have not come up as I have done a search through my system. I am a little worried I am going to have to buy the latest update... Does anyone know anything about this? I have two cds that came with the unit, one of them is a place of interest cd and the other is a Documentation cd... I think... Does anything know if I will be charged for my first update out of the box? If so that is messed up! the only update that says I need on the website is one for Europe and I dont need that living in Kansas, and the update cost $250. Does anyone know the standard price for a North American update if thats how I have to go? Thanks for all your help...

Should I put the cat to sleep?

My husband has always been allergic to my cat. His Mom could not stay at our house very long for the same reason. When my sister got divorced almost 2 years ago, it worked out well that she took my cat. Now she needs to break her lease and move back to our parent's house. They won't let her bring the cat (they have two already that do not get along with my cat - they are much younger and they fight.) My 2yo son battles asthma, I can't bring her here. No one we know wants to take her. She is almost 15 - years old. Do I put her to sleep?

Sleep Apnea Sufferers: What has been your experience with CPAP?

I've had treatments for depression for about 3 years now. None of the depression treatments such as medication and ECT helped.

I recently suspected sleep apnea and went for an overnight sleep study. They confirmed that I was experiencing sleep apnea, and I had a partial night's rest using the CPAP machine at the testing location, but it wasn't a full night's rest using it.

The test was last weekend, and they said it would be 7-10 days for a doctor to analyze the data and get back to me. I won't know how severe my sleep apnea is until I hear from the doc...

I was wondering if anyone would like to share their sleep apnea problems and solutions, and how well they did (or didn't) work. I'm especially interested in anyone's story involving depression, either due to or made worse by sleep apnea.

I'm not terribly overweight, 6ft 1in and 220 lbs, but the doc said I have a very narrow throat, and my severe allergies and sinus problems play a role.

I appreciate anyone's storys!
