I have Sleep Apnea and have to sleep with a CPap. I just got back from WDW this past Saturday. I was just recently diagnosed with Sleep Apnea and this past trip was my first with a Cpap. I was very concerned about how I was going to get the distilled water I need for my Cpap so I started a thread a few months back asking for advice and I got some really good feedback.
We just joined the DVC also so I figured it wouldn't hurt to call our DVC rep and ask him for advice since he has been so incredibly helpful over the past year(his name is Paul Kuhn and I HIGHLY recommend him if anyone is considering joining the DVC, he is amazing). We didn't want to have to spend the money on a cab ride to Goodings just to buy a gallon of Distilled water. As soon as we told Paul our dillema he said: "no problem, it's taken care of!".
He said for us to call him a few days before we were leaving to head down to Orlando to remind him and he would swing by a grocery store that he passes on his way to work and pick us up a gallon and leave it at the front desk of the DVC offices at Saratoga Springs(where he works AND where we were staying).
We called him on Thursday morning, April 12th to remind him and he said: "no problem, it will be waiting for you when you get here!"
As soon as we arrived at Saratoga Springs on Saturday, April 14th we went to the main DVC offices there and sure enough, he had left us a gallon of Distilled water. He didn't want us to pay him anything but we did anyway since he went out of his way to help make our stay that much more "magical". We met with him later on during the week and thanked him for his help. He really is a great guy.
I say all of this to say...Disney employees are awesome! Yeah, there are some bad apples in every bunch(we actually encountered more on this last trip than we ever have)but for the most part they are amazing people who will go well out of their way to help you anyway they can. As a first timer that is one of the first things you will notice...how kind and helpul MOST Disney employees are(they are actually called Cast Members, CM for short).
I highly recommend that you call your resort and tell them your dillemma and ask them if there is anything they can do to help you and I am very confident that they will do all they can to get the water that you need for your son's Cpap. I hope you have an amazing time and...WELCOME TO WDWMAGIC!!! You're gonna love these folks...when they aren't posting threads about how much they HATE something! Sorry...couldn't resist.
