Hi, everyone! Sorry for the delay in posting. I gave myself a day off yesterday. I decided to pick up some take out after the hospital and just relax.
Scott is doing really well. He’s extremely sleepy, anxious, fearful, and nervous but he is stable. He has adjusted well to the new travel sized vent and they reduced his O2 to 35%. All his stats are looking good so we are still anticipating rehab for tomorrow. At some point tomorrow morning the SICU doctors and rehab doctors will meet to make sure that everyone is in agreement that Scott is ready to move to the rehab floor(7th floor). Providing things remain stable I see no reason that he won’t graduate to floor 7!
Please pray that Scotts fear subsides and it is replaced with confidence and determination. We all know his outlook will determine his success. I told him that God wouldn’t bring us to this if he wasn’t going to bring us through it.
I appreciate all the prayers. I am finding that the last several days have been emotionally tough on me as well. I’m trying to take care of all our personal affairs, maintain a positive outlook for Scott, and sort of just survive but lately my mood has been down too. This is an emotional roller coaster that I pray that no one else ever has to ride. I know, deep down, we’ll get through this but sometimes I can’t see how. I guess the last few days I’m trying to find my own solution rather than leaving it to God. I gave it to God and find that sometimes I’m trying to take it back. Pray that I can just leave it with God.
Thank you for the prayers. Thank you for the support. It’s one of the only things I find comfort in during these difficult times.
