Since the Chiari Pillows are now allowed to be talked about on this site I

thought I would add my two cents about the pillows.

-One it is not made of memory foam like they clain it is. It is no more

then cheap foam that you use to box things up for packing.

-The pillow will only last for 6-8 months before it will fall apart and you

are out of your money and pillow that wasn't cheap too, buy either.

-Why does it take so long to get a pillow to someone when you pay for it

directly into their paypal account?

-Why have they gone from a good pillow to a cheaper one?

-Did anyone get one where it smelled?

-Who really developed the pillow? Is Chip taking credit for it all when he

did nothing?

-If you were to google Medpillows do you find Chip and Ann site? No you

find 7 other peoples site.

-What happen to them donating money for the pillows? Was this just a way to

get people to buy a pillow thingking that they could get a tax donation? Is

the money now going towards the Chiari Bus?

-Dr.B even stated in a post he really didn't have much to do with them.

-Yes, I believe this was another way for Chip and Ann to take advantage of

us poor people who don't have much money thinking this might help?

-The price of the pillow and the shipping alone on the pillows is not

right. Has anyone thought about how much money they have made off of us?

They claim not to be for profit? I have a hard time trying to stomach this

one.

Thanks for letting me get this off of my chest.

Kathleen's response:

I would like Ann or Chip to respond to these questions. I know both Ann and

Chip are very sick right now, so maybe Sandi can write for them.

What I am going to suggest is starting your own Yahoo group, I don't know

what you would name it, maybe Pillows for Chiarians, or something similar.

That way we aren't drawing away from the topic of Chiari and related

illness'.

We all want something that helps pain in any way.

I've been working on a sampler for almost a year, so when this is done I

will have the chance to get back to working on the website with .

Hopefully we can come up with ideas from all of you. My brain will work

again once I'm done committing every bit of energy I have to this sampler.

Something like this would take me maybe 3-4 weeks a few years ago, now it's

taking me almost a year.
