I thought it was just sleep apnea, according to the article.

No way. I have family with sleep apnea. That's where the muscles in your
throat relax to the point where they drop and block off your airway,
forcing your brain to come out of deep sleep every few seconds so it can
send a nerve signal to the muscles to tighten up. The only way it could be
fatal is if you were REALLY drunk or under the influence of meds, such
that you're passed-out hardcore and your brain can't wake up. Hell, sleep
apnea isn't even an issue unless you're sleeping on your back... if you're
on your side or stomach, gravity pulls the loose throat muscles in another
direction and your airway doesn't get blocked off.

See, I don't know anyone with sleep apnea, so I don't know anything about
it.

Like any other health disorder there are degrees of seriousness. My
aunt, for example, needs to be hooked up to some machine that will shock
her awake if she stops breathing.
