I would sink into the memory foam and NEVER MOVE AT ALL at night, and I'd wake up with a hip that was so sore, I wanted to scream when rolling over.


Not sure if I'd do another surgery, the CTS would have to be pretty bad, but at least I could crochet or knit for therapy. (crochet and knitting is therapy for me now...it keeps me from killing people )
