Mom called me today. She sounds stronger. We talked for 30 minutes before her voice started giving out again. This is the longest we've been able to talk.

She is still in the "Assisted Care Facility", for lack of a better term practically across the street from UC-Davis Medical Center. She has an MRI scheduled for Tuesday to check her brain.

Her carotid arteries were checked today, too. They show less than 50% blockage, which is less than before the heart attack, so I'm hoping the medications are working as expected.

The doctor's think she MIGHT be ready for discharge sometime around the 18th. Won't know for sure until after the Tuesday appointment. She still hasn't been informed of the appointment at the end of this month, so I'll need to contact my sister for an update on that.

Keep the prayers and good thoughts coming, please. They're definately working.
