The pillow is selectively attached to one of the patient's right arm and left arm and the patient's upper torso, for providing support and cushioning for both a lower and upper portion of the arm selected for support and for providing abduction of the arm selected for support with respect to the upper torso for reducing shoulder joint stress.
