The mattress lift system of  claim 4 , said mattress lift system further comprising an interface associated with said processor, said interface including at least two sets of controls for providing commands to said processor, wherein one set of controls provides a command to inflate the at least one inflatable bladder of said lower extremity section and another set of controls provides command to inflate one or more of the at least two inflatable bladders of said upper extremity section. 
     
     
         6 . The mattress lift system of  claim 5 , wherein the interface includes a control for providing a command to said processor to inflate one or more of the inflatable bladders of said upper extremity section, said lumbar section and said lower extremity section to a predetermined level. 
     
     
         7 . The mattress lift system of  claim 1 , wherein said air pump motor includes at least two stages. 
     
     
         8 . The mattress lift system of  claim 1 , further comprising a lumbar section, said lumber section including an inflatable bladder, the inflatable bladder of said lumber section separately connected to said air pump motor from the inflatable bladders of said upper extremity section and lower extremity section. 
     
     
         9 . The mattress lift system of  claim 1 , wherein each of the at least two inflatable bladders of said upper extremity section being concurrently inflatable by said air pump motor. 
     
     
         10 . The mattress lift system of  claim 1 , wherein each of the at least two inflatable bladders of said upper extremity section and the at least one bladder of said lower extremity section are capable of being concurrently inflated by said air pump motor. 
     
     
         11 . The mattress lift system of  claim 1 , wherein said lower extremity section includes at least two inflatable bladders, each of the least two inflatable bladders of said lower extremity section being separately connected to said air pump motor and independently inflatable by said air pump motor from the other of the at least two inflatable bladders of said lower extremity section and the at least two inflatable bladders of said upper extremity section. 
     
     
         12 . The mattress lift system of  claim 3 , wherein the interface allows a user to manually and continuously inflate one or more of the inflatable bladders of said upper extremity section and said lower extremity section. 
     
     
         13 . The mattress lift system of  claim 1 , wherein said air pump motor includes a pressure sensing valve associated with each of the inflatable bladders of said upper extremity section and said lower extremity section, the pressure regulators preventing said air pump motor from over filling of the inflatable bladders. 
     
     
         14 . The mattress lift system of  claim 3 , wherein the interface includes at least one control for deflating one or more of the inflatable bladders of said upper extremity section and said lower extremity section. 
     
     
         15 . The mattress lift system of  claim 1 , wherein said air pump motor communicates with a pressure sensing valve associated with each inflatable bladder to ensure that the inflatable bladders are not over filled. 
     
     
         16 . The mattress lift system of  claim 2 , wherein said mid-section configured to adjust a distance between said upper extremity section and said lower extremity section. 
     
     
         17 . The mattress lift system of  claim 16 , wherein a portion of said mid-section is capable of being folded under and retained by a plurality of snaps to alter the distance between said upper extremity section and said lower extremity section. 
     
     
         18 . An adjustable mattress lift system, said mattress lift system positionable beneath a mattress for enabling users to adjust the mattress into a plurality of positions, said mattress lift system comprising:
