A way to keep your head propped up

Need to keep someone’s head propped up while lying down? A quick solution is to buy wedges that are used to keep infants from rolling over. They come two in a pack and are joined by velcro so you can widen or narrow the gap between them, depending on the fit you want.

My mother needed these wedges to let her relax while laying on her back. Her head tended to tall to one side or the other, but these wedges kept things in place. She also found that they helped her sleep by blocking out sounds a fair bit.

Some people have told me they use the “airline pillows”, but my mother found she couldn’t easily slip those kind off her neck while lying on her back.
