Open sources of fire

Well, I haven't quite figured out about lighting candles for Shabbat and oxygen. Michael and the oxygen condenser have to stay 15 feet from open sources of fire. That will make eating dinner kind of tricky for him as the candles are on the table.
Sleeping with the oxygen condenser was OK because it was downstairs and we were upstairs. It is very, very noisy. We have 50 feet of oxygen tubing snaking through the house so we have to be careful not to trip.
If anyone has had experience with oxygen and Shabbat candles please let me know.

You could light somewhere other than the table, or get some sort of glass container that covers the candles except for a small hole at the top to let the O2 in.

Shabbat Shalom, neighbor!! Welcome Home!!
(Barb,.. maybe deviate from your table-top custom to lite further from Michael's seat. Maybe Electric lights?.. maybe ask Rabbi Benjy Last?..)
