When I called my dad earlier, my mom answered the phone.

She's still in the hospital, and will most likely be there for a few more days. But it was good to hear her voice and to talk to her for a bit. She was a bit evasive when it came to describing her current diagnosis, condition, so I think I'm going to call the hospital tomorrow and see if I can talk to her doctor or attending nurse to get a few more details. But, again, she's doing better. -And there was less worry in my father's voice when I talked to him.
