I got a new one just a few weeks ago Madtuna, and I love it :inlove:
For years Mrs Deepseeker wanted me to throw out my old wafer thin one, and once she even took the initiative and did just that, but I fished it out of the bin and washed it. Then, a few weeks back my neck was giving me hell. A combination I suspect of swimming 3 times a week (and for some weird reason I can only breathe on my right side when I swim, and that makes my neck sore), and lugging around the 25" DD X and digging deep craters with the pick and spud bar.
Anyway, to cut to the chase- Went to the Chiropractor to get crunched because of neck pain and pins & needles down my left arm. She sends me for X-rays and as it happens I've worn the crapper out of my cervical vertebrae (and how about that huh? Who'da thought I had a Cervix???).
Chiro reckons at some time I've fractured my neck and the X-ray shows little free-range spinous processes floating around doing their own thing, no longer a part of my vertebrae.
Then she says- What is your pillow like? So I tell her, it's a wafer thin piece of nothing that I'm madly in love with and I'm not parting with it. So, she goes out of the room and comes back with this (unfortunately just the pillow, not the girl)
It's made from Latex rubber, the very same stuff that they make crotchless batman suits out of apparently. So, she looks at me laying down on my side on the Chiro table, and says "No, too thick", then goes away and comes back with a thinner one. And man, I forked out $90 right there and then, went home and threw my beloved wafer thin oldy straight in the bin. It took a Chiro to work out what type of pillow I needed. I used to wake up at least 2 or 3 times in the night to go have a wee, now I rarely get up until the alarm goes off (and no, I don't wee the bed either
)
Mrs Deepseeker used to sleep with one ear plug in her ear for years so she couldn't hear me snore. I have not snored
once in the last few weeks, and she says sometimes there's only the slightest murmur from me (she even says that sometimes she thinks I'm actually dead, and I'm not sure yet if this is a good thing or not).
But all jokes aside, I have never slept so well in my whole life. The contoured latex pillow makes you lay with your spine and neck straight, with support for your neck as well as your head.
