I sleep on a craft matic bed.  I only sleep on my sides.  I don't sleep on my back because it takes away from my sitting time.  One night I may sleep on the right hip and the next night I switch to my left hip.  Sometimes when my legs become spastic I may switch in the middle of the night were sleep prone.  I must be careful what I sleep prone as not to kink my catheter.  I tried air mattresses and water mattresses, but I lose the freedom of turning myself and performing self transfers.

Welcome Back LindaF !
You were missed kiddo!
Have you been contacted by Joe White, the quad from Valpo?  He's the guy who
was
thrown from the mechanical bull at the Porter County Fair, a couple of years
ago.
He was looking for a couple of hot bods to work his "disAbilities Booth" at
the
Popcorn Fest last month.
