Feasibility of the Use of Weighted Blankets to Improve Sleep Among Patients With Hematological Malignancies

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn about the effects of weighted blankets on sleep quality in patients with blood cancers. Weighted blankets are heavier blankets that contain inner weight beads. The deep pressure stimulation induced by these blankets can have a calming effect.

History of seizures/intracranial metastasis/ sleep apnea/restless leg syndrome/paralysis 3. Weight less than 150 lbs. 4. Attending physician assessment of prognosis with expected life expectancy of \<1 month 5.
