Video Transcript: [David Thompson] I’ve been a farmer since 1962. I left school at 13 and my parents are farmers so I went farming.
[David Thompson] I just wanted my own farm and when I got married, my misses wanted to do the same thing so we done it.
[David Thompson] One of my sons followed me into farming, but he got out of it. Couldn't hack it.
[David Thompson] You're way out in the never, never and you get good season and you get bad seasons. It’s a 24 hour a day job. I do it because I know it's got to be done and that's it. I was having to come out of the field two or three times a day and have a sleep up to two hours at a time which didn't leave much room for work. I was buggered all the time. Just had no energy…can’t do the work I used to do.
[David Thompson] There’s just things you've got to put up with in life.
[Dr. Subash Heraganahally] Sleep apnea is when you stop breathing during the night you can’t stop breathing forever so your oxygen and carbon dioxide levels pick up and it triggers your brain to – wake you up and start breathing again. David came to see me and we performed a sleep study on him and we saw that he was waking up about 15 times an hour. So we gave him a script to go to get a CPAP machine
[Jenni Brotherton] We partner with Dr. Subash to bring sleep therapy to patients like, David. We started him on a Dream Station CPAP machine. When the airways start to relax and cave in, it is continuous positive air pressure that keeps the airways open.
[Jenni Brotherton] I travel fortnightly to Katherine, which is 60% indigenous, because patients in remote communities are just as likely to be unwell with sleep apnea as people in the big cities.
[Jenni Brotherton] The Dream Station has remote monitoring which is very important for rural patients. We can monitor how they’re doing from our clinic, and it keeps the patient at home, doing what they need to do.
[Jenni Brotherton] Each morning, his CPAP machine is sending the data of his sleep to us. Allowing us to know his usage and how his airways have improved.
[David Thompson] I get decent night's sleep now. I've got more energy, definitely. I'm much more productive on the farm. At least I can do something now instead of being a bludger. No worries about that.
[David Thompson] What's important in life? My health and my family. Material things, couldn't give a stuff.
