What is claimed is: 1. A medical device used to overcome upper airway obstruction when a patient is placed in a supine position comprising: two compressible tubular structures, each tubular structure having a first and a second end, and wherein the first end of each compressible tubular structure defines an aperture; two joints, each joint having a first, a second, and a third socket, and wherein each socket of the joint is perpendicular to each other, and wherein the second end of each compressible tubular structure is attached to the first socket of each joint; Two rods, each rod having a first and a second end, and wherein the second end of each rod defines a rod aperture, and wherein the first end of each rod is attached to the second socket of each joint; A connector, the connector has two ends, each end of the connector is attached to each third socket of each joint; A u-shaped strut having two ends, wherein each of the U-shaped strut's ends is attached to each of the rod's apertures; a tubular skirt, both rods being inserted through the tubular skirt; and a hammock, the hammock comprises of a rectangular body and each corner of the body has a strap that extends outward, and each strap has an attachment means so that when the hammock is placed under the lower jaw of a patient, each straps will attach to each compressible tubular structure. 2. The medical device of claim 1, wherein each strap of the hammock has a plurality of fenestrations, the device further comprises four hooks, wherein each of the four hooks are inserted through two of the fenestrations of each strap after each strap encircles each compressible tubular structure. 3. The medical device of claim 2, further comprising a stabilizing bar having two ends, each end of the stabilizing bar is attached to each of the apertures of the compressible tubular structures. 4. A medical device used to overcome upper airway obstruction when a patient is placed in a supine position comprising: two compressible tubular structures, each tubular structure having a first and a second end, and wherein the first end of each compressible tubular structure defines an aperture; two joints, each joint having a first, a second, and a third attachment means, and wherein each attachment means of the joint is perpendicular to each other, and wherein the second end of each compressible tubular structure is attached to the first attachment means of each joint; two rods, each rod having a first and a second end, and wherein the second end of each rod defines a rod aperture, and wherein the first end of each rod is attached to the second attachment means of each joint; a connector, the connector has two ends, each end of the connector is attached to each third attachment means of each joint; a u-shaped strut having two ends, wherein each of the U-shaped strut's ends is attached to each of the rod's apertures; a tubular skirt, both rods being inserted through the tubular skirt; and a hammock, the hammock comprises of a rectangular body and each comer of the body has a strap that extends outward, and each strap has an attachment means so that when the hammock is placed under the lower jaw of a patient, each strap will attach to each compressible tubular structure. 5. The medical device of claim 4, wherein each strap of the hammock has a plurality of fenestrations, the device further comprises four hooks, wherein each of the four hooks are inserted through two of the fenestrations of each strap after each strap encircles each compressible tubular structure. 6. The medical device of claim 5, further comprising a stabilizing bar having two ends, each end of the stabilizing bar is attached to each of the aperture of the compressible tubular structure. 7. The medical device of claim 6, wherein the joint is L-shaped.
