Good luck to everyone- its a huge investment but so worth it. As Mary said, all of the products are excellent. Hope this helps you. CZ

Thank you for that bit of advice. I was just there at the doctors, but he goes back in 2 weeks and I will ask for one.

My wife and I just bought a bed, and we love it! It is soft, but also firm. We tried many beds before settling on this mattress.

I was just in Costco and they have a 12" memory foam mattress that is very affordable compared to the tempurpedic. Here is the link.

The bed we bought is this one

That looks so comfy. My hospital bed is way higher than that, though. Otherwise I can't get into bed easily. I just have to put my butt down, actually, the setting is that high. Would love to find a normal bed that's that high.

Hi,

Since you and your boyfriend need a new bed, my doc suggested to get a firm mattress. Hope this helps and good luck.
