Mia called me twice yesterday and I failed to get on the computer and put out a new post. Sorry! She was much more encouraged yesterday. She said she had a good day with Gary. She had started taking down all of the pictures and e-mails (Again!) in preparation for the move today to Kindred. When she took down a picture, she would take it to show Gary and tell him who or what it was and he would look directly at it and follow it until she laid it down. Then when she would bring another picture to him, he would do the same thing and one time he even grinned for her. She said, "Meemaw, Gary's in there! I just know he is!"

The move today is supposed to take place about 11 a.m. California time. Mia said she would be there and help get him set up in his new room (hopefully it'll be a private one). She, as well as Bill and I, are very anxious for him to begin this new step in rehabilitation. Everything that Mia has found out about Kindred has been positive.

Gary's vital signs are still good, they've taken him off the heparin and the blood clot situation seems to be good. They put him on Coumadin. He's getting most of his medications through his feeding tube now. She did not know if he was still on the anti-seizure medication or not, but had left a note to ask the doctor about it. However, she feels that once he gets to Kindred and the new doctors there evaluate him, they will adjust his medications to their liking.

Mia will not call me today until late since she'll be busy with the move, etc. Also, she may have to pick Leah up around 6 p.m. at the airport which is near where Gary will be.

Please pray especially hard for them today and for Leah, too!

Love to everyone, Bill and Nancy
