Mattress Mack Hospitalized for Cognitive Issues

Houston's well-known businessman Jim 'Mattress Mack' McIngvale is hospitalized at St. Luke’s Hospital due to cognitive issues. Despite his health challenges, he has continued to promote Gallery Furniture's Labor Day sale from his hospital bed, encouraging customers to shop for bargains. McIngvale experienced nausea and confusion, including missing his work exit for the first time in 43 years and not knowing the day of the week, which led to his hospitalization. He reassured his followers that he is receiving good care and expects to recover soon. Community members and local leaders have been sending well-wishes for his recovery. McIngvale is optimistic and believes the best way to lift his spirits is for customers to support his store during the sale.
