    Four relatives of the Texas Ebola patient who have been confined to their Dallas apartment moved to a home in a gated community the use of which was given to them by an anonymous donor, according to a Dallas city official.

    The city had a difficult time finding a home for the family of Thomas Eric Duncan because no one wanted to take them in, according to Sana Syed, a spokesperson for the city of Dallas.


    Cleanup crews discovered today that Duncan slept on every mattress in the apartment, said Syed. They previously thought he only slept on one.


    All the mattresses, sheets and towels inside the apartment were confiscated and will be incinerated, said Syed. The cleanup will continue for several more days and the car Duncan was in before being taken to the emergency room will be towed.

    The family includes two men, a 13-year-old boy named Timothy, and a woman named Louise Troh, who traveled with Duncan from Liberia and has been referred to as Duncan's wife by other family members.


    Timothy's father Peterson Wayne told ABC News that he had spoken with his son by phone since he was ordered to remain inside the apartment.

    Wayne said that his son has been occupying his time by playing games on his phone and sounds fine but "he's the kind of kid who likes to get outside and run around."


    "He said he's okay ... He sounded normal," Wayne said of his son.

    The North Texas Food Bank stopped outside of the apartment on Thursday and left three day's worth of food, including produce, cereal, rice, pasta, tuna and shelf-stable milk.

    Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins said today that he visited the apartment Thursday night to apologize to the residents for keeping them in the apartment despite Duncan's diagnosis. He said that he told them that he wanted to make sure that they were treated as well as he would expect his own family to be treated.


    Jenkins specifically said that he wanted to make sure that the family would be moved somewhere with a washer and dryer.
