My Bed

As I understand it, Medicare (or Medicaid, I get them confused) technically pays for my bed here-- literally the bed, not the room-- and requires the bed be a hospital bed, that is, a bed that can be raised and lowered and manipulated in various ways. No doubt that's useful, but it also has a down side.

I often use the urinal in bed at night. A couple times recently I've had to use it, and the pee has come out of the urinal. I think that has to do with the bed. It's not flat. It sinks in the middle a bit, for example, so I assume if we don't get the urinal placed correctly beside me on the bed, the thing spills.

Hopefully, a new home would include a simple, flat, comfortable bed.
