Dear Sun Spots: Due to a serious injury I am now using a hospital bed. I have a hard time finding sheets that fit properly and the wrinkles from poor fitting sheets hurt while I sleep. Do you have any idea where I could find sheets to fit this type of bed? A hospital bed is a bit longer and narrower than typical beds. I would appreciate any information you can provide. – Cathy, Monmouth.

Answer: Bedard Pharmacy, 61 College St., Lewiston, (207) 786-0138, carries hospital sheets. They sell for $19.99.

Dear Sun Spots: I wonder if you could help me. I live in Derbyshire, England.

I have found the grave of Edward Warhurst’s father, Timothy, buried at my local church and would be happy to help anyone trying to trace their Warhurst family tree. Calling any Warhurst in the Lewiston area. I may be reached by e-mail at [email protected]. – Mrs. P. Jackson nee Warhurst, Derbyshire, England.
