I'm sorry that I didn't get to post this morning after talking with Mia, but Bill and I were baby-sitting 3 little girls all day long. There wasn't much news this morning anyway, except that Gary was still having some GI problems and he was turning his head when Mia tried to shave him. Then he grinned at her. She was really proud of that grin!

Then this afternoon late she called to say that she'd left the hospital around noon to make visits to two acute care rehabilitation centers in Los Angeles. She had researched them and found their ratings through Fortune 500. However, she wanted to personally visit them and talk with the staff and then determine which one was the best for Gary's situation. The one she liked best is Kindred and is located not too far from the LAX airport. Of course it will be a longer drive for Mia but she doesn't care about that as long as she can feel confident that Gary is being cared for the best way possible. She said when she walked in the Kindred facility she just knew that was the place for him. She said from the receptionist to the last person she talked with, she was impressed. Also, she said it was bright and cheerful. Gary would probably not have a private room, but they were going to try to find him one. Mia was very encouraged with the talks that she had there with the doctors and staff about Gary's case. They were anxious to get him and the challenge that he would be for them. She still doesn't know when Gary will be moved there but he probably will be moved from ICU to the Telemetry Unit at the present hospital first and then transferred to Kindred.

When she called she was stuck in traffic and was on her way back to the hospital. She's Gary's greatest asset and I'm so thankful for her. Please continue to pray for her and Gary as she makes these decisions for him.

God bless all of you for caring and praying for them.

Love, Bill and Nancy

P.S. Pray for us, too! We have 3 more kids tonight - 13, 11, 11.
