Luke got his bed. I love it. It's been a
breath of fresh air to put him in and walk away. Now....we
are back to Luke being normal and he loves it.

We got the SleepSafer® bed for our son,
Will, yesterday, and it's awesome! It's twin-sized (they
have toddler/youth and full-sized beds too) and fully enclosed
so he can't get out of bed at night. Before yesterday, he
was still sleeping in a crib because he wouldn't stay in
a regular bed, and he's almost 4 years old. We are so excited
that our son has a safe place to sleep and we don't have
to worry about him at night anymore. I would recommend this
bed to anyone who has a child that needs to be enclosed
while they sleep. They are very safe.

We love Brendan's bed, it makes our
life so much easier. He loves it too. He loves it so much
he refuses to sleep anywhere else now. I would love to help
out. The SleepSafe® bed has been a total Godsend for
us. I recommend it all the time.

I
personally love this bed for my daughter and I am so glad
I did my research and went ahead with a bed that she will
grow into well in to adulthood. Best yet, it goes above
my waist so I can pick her up easily and safely. The bumpers,
thank you for creating that. I could go on and on from the
quality of the wood, features, even being able to customize
it, put on pieces, take off, etc.
I have told all my daughters' therapists about your company
and they are also trying to order them for their clients.
Finally a company that actually thinks about their clients
and their comforts.
Here are some pictures of Korii in her bed (that's her cousin
in them too).
A proud Mom thanks you and for your great
staff.

I was able to
put Eliajh's bed together on Friday night. It is BIG! I
love the quality of the construction! I am sure that now
I will have piece of mind if I need to leave the room.
Here is a great picture that we'd love to
share with you all. Thank you for such a wonderful product
and your kind attention to his needs.

Hello!
Just wanted to touch base and say how
much we love your SleepSafer® bed! Samantha has been
resting much better since she's been sleeping in her new
bed. I have too!

Mr. Hallock and Weinschreider and everyone at SleepSafe®,
My entire family is just overwhelmed with the
generosity you have shown to my baby girl. I am not sure how much
you know of our story. I think it's imperative for you to know
what we have been through to realize the amount in which you helped
us.
Makily was born with Emanuel Syndrome.
It's a genetic condition that I am a carrier for. My husband and
I did not know anything was wrong until she was born and on death's
door. Makily suffered terribly the first year of her life and
for a long time we didnt think she would see her first birthday.
If she did her future was very uncertain and we were basically
led to believe she would be NOTHING more than a vegetable. Makily
is NOT a vegetable, she can sit up, stand up, giggle, smile, I
hope she will walk one day. She loves people and Spongebob and
is the most amazing person I have ever known. She overcame so
much just in her first year. We are not having anymore biological
children because of the risk of bringing another sick baby into
the world that would had to suffer like Makily has.
My husband and I have applied for
EVERY state funded insurance as a back up for Makily's health
care needs. We have been denied for EVERY SINGLE ONE. We applied
for Medicaid and SSI twice. SSI told us to get divorced or give
legal custody of Makily to someone else. INSANE. We make about
$50k a year and bring home about $35k. With Makily's therapy being
close to $400/week (insurance only covers $2500 a year), all of
her medications, equipment, co-pays, hospitilizations, trips to
specialists we literally have been hanging on by a string and
have gone through much of our savings. It's laughable to me they
think we can afford all of this and that we are too "rich"
to get any kind of help.
I tell you all that to tell you this.
I am a tired Mommy who has been fighting for Makily for EVERYTHING
she has needed for four years. I spend my days on the phone begging
and pleading for help. My pride is out the window. It honestly
seems like EVERYTHING we try to get or do for Makily is a struggle,
fight or argument. When you have gotten to the point you are BEGGING
state agencies for help and you are denied, things get very depressing.
I have been at the end of my rope and my attitude was suffering.
I would wake up angry and that is not the person I ever want to
be.
After finding out that my baby
was getting her bed yesterday it was like a light switched on.
I feel the spring back in my step. I have let the anger and anxiety
about her bed go and it's one less worry I have to have. I know
that I don't have to call the insurance company five times a day
begging for answers from someone who really does not care about
my kid. That stress disappeared yesterday and I now have peace
that my miracle daughter is going to have a comfortable bed that
she can sleep in safely.
I will never be able to fully thank
you for what you have done for us.
From Makily and her entire extended family,
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!
Sincerely
Patricia Caldwell
Makily's proud mommy
Dear SleepSafe Beds,
We have a SleepSafe bed for our handicapped son who is now 10 years.
First of all, I want to thank you for the wonderful product you
make. I can’t tell you what a difference it makes to us to
have a bed in our son’s room that does not make it look like
a hospital room. I can’t tell you how many friends with handicapped
children have followed in our footsteps and gotten the same bed.
The mechanics work beautifully and the wood and window panels
look brand new after almost seven years!! I was the first of my
friends to get the bed and at least four more over the years have
selected it. I just recommended the bed to friend in Duxbury.
I am having them over to look at it in a couple of weeks. As our
son grows we may actually get the full size next.
Sincerely,
Elizabeth Nightingale
To Whom it may concern,
We ordered the SleepSafe® Plus for my son this summer and he
has been in it since September. I cannot express how wonderful it
has been for him, it was worth every minute of work to get the funding
for it and every penny we put in ourselves.
That aside I just heard from a friend of mine that your company
is donating a bed to her daughter Makily – I wanted to send
along a thank you. I can’t say how awesome this is for them,
and how proud it makes me to own one of your beds.
You guys are awesome. Thanks for reminding us that there are good
people and good companies out there – when we spend our lives
fighting for funding, and fighting insurance, and fighting for what
our children need, we often lose sight of the fact that behind all
these fights there are people, and a lot of them do care.
Thank you.
Our son has an adaptive bed and does not sleep very well. Then he
tried a SleepSafe® Bed. For the very first time in his life
he slept all the way through the night two nights in a row. I think
the difference was the high see-through sides. It seemed like he
felt safer and loved being able to see out.
Written by the mother of a six year old boy with
Cerebral Palsy who is non- ambulatory and non-verbal and has had
sleep issues his entire life.
Hello,
We are very happy with our new SleepSafe® II Plus bed. I wanted
to write a testimonial and feel free to add it to your list if you
would like. My husband and I decided
on the SleepSafe® II Plus bed for our special needs child.
We did quite a bit of research before deciding to pursue this
bed. Our little girl has RETT Syndrome (a neurological developmental
disorder). We heard from many parents on RETT NET that they have
the SLEEPSAFE® beds for their little girls. We emailed the
families and felt confident that this was the bed for us. We were
happy this model came in the full size bed too.
My husband assembled the bed in a few hours. Our
daughter (she is 16) came down with a respiratory infection shortly
after getting her new bed. This bed helped her breathe more easily
by elevating her head. She was able to have her head raised to
eat/drink and also watch her favorite DVDs while she recuperated.
She is facing back surgery within the next month and this bed
is going to help her (and us) tremendously.
Also, the customer service we received was exceptional.
And the bed was delivered earlier than we expected so that made
us happy!

Hello,
My name is Becky Dornoff and I am an adoptive mom of a number of
children with special needs. I have 3 of the SleepSafe® Beds,
and I just wanted to share how wonderful they are. They look great,
are very easy to clean and are very safe for my kids who have cerebral
palsy. Thank you for the design of your beds!
