Question
My grand father was 85 yrs and just had a hip replacement, it's been about a month after his surgery.  He doesnt wan to use the leg wedge pillow while sleeping?  Any thoughts on how it is recommended to use the pillow.

There is no reason to get rid of the wedge pillow.  It is a guard to use until the person is ready to give it up.  The problem with the wedge pillow is that you can only sleep on your back while using it, so people like to get rid of it as fast as they can.

I would suggest, if your grandfather wants to get rid of the wedge pillow to get a long body pillow. That will allow him to sleep on his side and guard against crossing his legs.

My last replacement was 9 years ago, and I still sleep with a body pillow.
