Old folks, do you find a firmer or softer mattress helps you get out of bed without feeling like you left the crypt? The aches are becoming too much, and I'm not sure how to address it.

Morning or afternoon We have a pillowtop mattress by beauty rest.

Sorry to badger you, but how thick is the pillowtop? A couple inches? More?

No bother to start.
We also added a mattress topper we bought them at Costco.

My Mom had a heart attack yesterday. They are still figuring out options for her.

I'm so sorry, Ron. Hoping for a full recovery.

I'm so sorry.
Hope she's comfortable and stable in the meantime.

She is doing better today after a transusion.

You can try a sleep numbers bed to find out what firmness works best.
