Hello Nicole,
there are a lot of information about sleep apnea. You can find books about this disorder in shops, or you can read interesting things from internet or from my guide about sleep apnea:
With sleep apnea you stop breathing and your heart beat can become irregular. The machine keeps him stable and everything ok.
I am a sleep apnea sufferer myself and I sleep with CPAP for more than 3 years now. Here is some information about masks and machines I am using. Some people find it helpful. Good luck.
