I just got off the phone with mom and she said that things are going better with the nurses. The day nurse and her still had their moments of not cummunicating well (the nurse has a real real strong accent and is from Nigera, mom has a hard time hearing anyway, so the two factors don't mix well). Mom said that the night nurse was very nice to her. They also didn't have the correct menu/food for dad to be eating and finally for dinner they were able to get him the correct food. Dad had dialysis last on Friday of last week. Mom asked about this and the Kidney Dr (same one that was at methodist) said he hasn't needed it. They have been checking it everyday and will check again tomorrow. I can't help but take that as a good sign.
Mom said that now being over at Kindred is very hard on her because she has to be on top of things more then ever and it is a longer day with being able to be in the room with dad all day. It has exhausted her more then she expected. She is glad that she can be in there, although it is still wearing on her more. Mom also said that she thinks the move has been a good one for dad in the fact that he is sleeping better at night and is in a more peaceful environment.
Thanks again for the prayer and support! We hope everyone has a GREAT Christmas Eve tomorrow.

Wednesday 4PM ET: David and I just spoke briefly with Tim on the phone! His voice was strong and he did not want to let us go but we kept the conversation short. He tells us he is getting feeling back in his feet but still cannot stand or move his legs without help. He also said it looked like he would get to do a lot more than just seeing another Christmas! Praise God!
