Sleep malady (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

apnea

'sleep malady' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for apnea that I've seen before include "Loss of breath" , "that'll make you catch your breath?" , "Cessation of breathing during sleep (US spelling)" , "stopping breathing in US" .)

I've seen this clue in the L.A. Times Daily, the LA Times and the USA Today.
