I had one for years..
Including my first 6 years of PD..
A divorce left her with the waterbed..
It was great for the aches and pains of PD..
The warmth and even pressure..
Resulted in very restful nights..
Getting in and out was the biggest challenge..
I learned an easy way to get out though..
I would toss my leg over her..
Thinking I was in an amorous mood..
Catching the upward motion of the resultant wave..
She would push me with all her might..
Propelling me up to the padded rail..
A solution to a problem but heavy damage resulted to my male ego..
Would love to try the bed again..
This time for the aches and pains only..
As the ego and anything else you'd want a waterbed for..
Are now fully deflated!!
