First, a big thank you to Ricky who has been exceptionally helpful and quick to respond. Second, I am thrilled with my new bedding. Purchased a new mattress and entire bedding set (pillows, covers, etc). There was no smell, and I was struck with how CLEAN everything was, upon unpacking my items. We've had a Tempurpedic for the last 10 years, and I hated that mattress from the start (smelled terrible, like chemicals). I truly believe it has been a contributor to my illness, plus, I was unable to sleep and had incredible hot flashes that woke me nightly. I've only had the wool bed for about a week and noticed that I am already starting to sleep again! I'm no longer woken incessantly from the hot flashes, and can only assume I'll soon be feeling better all the way around, because I'm no longer being poisoned every night. Sleep is a good thing! I remember that now! 😁 Thank you! Thank you!
