My 18 year old son (C6/7) 11 years post has a continuing history of pressure sores, some involving surgery and extends time out of his chair. Presently he is facing surgery on a new one. Through the years we have tried many things to prevent them. He has a rojo cushion in his chair, has an air mattress on his bed, tilts in his chair through the day to change position, etc. but continues to have these problems. The plastic surgeon is suggesting that we investigate getting him a sand bed. After one of his surgeries, the insurance company rented one for him, but the company that makes the beds is going out of business. He doesn't know of any other brands. I guess my question is... does anyone have any experience with this types of beds? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Audreys
