    Daughter has a Shunt Fitted
    she has been sleeping with her own bed raised on a couple of books but still wakes with headaches

    Having recently returned from holiday the place we stayed at inclined her mattress ALOT more than her bed was at home

    home = 6 degrees
    hols = 18 degrees

    During the whole time away she did not have a single headache

    we therefore by stroke of luck are now going to find something that will allow us to raise her mattress to a greater angle

    I'm at about 20 degrees on a mattress raiser. Sounds like she will be raised at an angle all the time so the electric bed would be a waste of money if she doesn't need to be able to raise her legs or go flat if she wants.
