Satin Sheets

We bought satin sheets from Comfort House in New Jersey (1-800-359-7701)
 They also have a web site at http://comfort.viamall.com/  The satin
sheets solved some problems, but created others:

1.  It is almost impossible to sit up in bed to read or watch TV.  You
keep slowly sliding down from a sitting up position to a lying down one.

2.  The blankets keep sliding off the bed.

3.  Getting in and out of bed is more difficult.  Sitting on the edge of
the bed is almost impossible.  It is difficult to avoid sliding off the
edge of the bed and falling to the floor.

We're still experimenting, and at the present time, using the satin sheet
on the bottom only, with a regular top sheet and pillow case.
