I know in the past that I've seen a picture of someone who was able to pair a twin XL with a hospital bed. It LOOKED like a king.
So, the ALS Clinic sent over a hospital bed. I realize it's pure vanity, but dangit, I wanted our beds to LOOK like one bed. Forgive my ridiculousness, but there is no pairing this thing with DH's bed to have a shared headboard. It has a big plastic headboard and footboard that hide the mechanism that allows for lifting and lowering the bed. Now, my insurance would partially cover a hospital bed if I found one I liked, allowing this one to go back to the library.
I get that this is a 1 on the scale of importance, but I like my bedroom. I spend a fair bit of time in/out of there. I MISS a headboard - a real one where my pillow doesn't slip down and he doesn't get a headboard at all if his bed is next to mine. Is there a solution here?
