Anyone know what a thing to keep bedcovers off your legs

Is called?

My mum has just had a knee operation.

She is finding even a sheet too heavy.

I seem to remember seeing some sort of 'frame' / tunnel thing in old hospital shows that you can put over your legs then put the sheets on top.

Can anyone think what it's called so I can see where to buy one?

Blanket raiser, or bed cradle, depending on the style.

You could try using a small side table instead, on its side, lower 2 legs under mattress

Bingo!! Exactly that 🙏🏻

And thank you everyone. I was Googling 'leg protector' and just couldn't think of the words.

Thank you thank you!

Try a traditional mesh fireguard if you have one/can borrow one?

You need a bed cradle www.amazon.co.uk/bed-cradle-blanket-support/s?k=bed+cradle+blanket+support
Page down from the dog beds!

Thanks all.

Funny that is was also near the dog beds... I'm hoping one of the other by-products will be to enable the dog to get back in her bed. he sleeps with her and neither of them are happy with the current separate beds arrangement!
