Our Blog - "Christine's Corner"

I'm Christine Cook, President of Sleep Experts. As a wife and mother of two, I am most proud of our company's commitment to serving D/FW families in need through our Rest Assured mattress donation program. Through this blog I hope to share news and stories that will inspire others to join us in supporting the many nonprofit organizations in our community that serve families and children in crisis.

And from time to time, I'll also share sleep tips, advice on finding the right mattress, or other fun news and information.  Thanks for reading, and we hope you "Love Your Mattress"!

An inspiring Mom

Last week we received a call from a Sleep Experts customer with a special mattress donation request.  His friend Brandi Todd had been stabbed and paralyzed from the waist down while watching her two young children at a park in Stephenville, Texas. Brandi would be returning to her home after four weeks of rehab at Baylor Hospital in Dallas - and she needed a bed to come home to. Through the good work of our Rest Assured team and our merchandising VP, we were able to donate a brand new Simmons Comforpedic mattress with an adjustable base that makes it function much like a hospital bed.  You may have heard about Brandi through the media as she has captured the attention of the DFW community and beyond.  She has surely inspired us through her incredible spirit, energy and faith as she recovers from this tragedy and vows to defy the doctors and walk again.
