pressure mattresses, this is much less of an issue.
My late DH was bed- bound, lying flat on his back for 3 years, and died with his skin perfectly intact. All I did was turn him slightly when I had an aide in the house to help me, 2 to 3 times a day at most.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.

Tell me more...
