November 1

November 1 - Day 3 in ICU

Each day that we woke up without a middle of the night call was a good one.  It became apparent that we would be spending a lot of time in the ICU waiting room.  Luckily my work is amazing, supportive and told me not to even think about going to work that week.  We quickly got into a routine.  Chris would wake up and head to work by 4:00am.  He would work a few hours and then head to the hospital.  I would drop off the kids at school, head to the hospital arriving about 9:00am.  Two of those mornings I was the first to arrive and would sit with Scott talking to him, reading from the bible or just holding his hand in hopes that he would hear and wake up.  His medical team told us to constantly talk to him, touch his hand, sing, read, etc.  This had shown to have a positive effect in situations like this.  The amount of visitors that Scott received was amazing and brought our family to tears many times.

This was the post from the Support Scott Moser Facebook page that day:

This morning presented us with mixed news in regard to Scott’s condition.  His lungs and respiratory issues have improved.  The concern regarding his brain functions is very real.  On day 3 we should be seeing some reflexes kick in and as of this afternoon that was not happening.  We all know Scott has his own way of doing things, so we are remaining positive and optimistic that he will start showing improvement.  Once Scott is a bit more stabilized the doctors are going to have a CAT scan done.  This may give us some answers.  Please continue to pray.  The outpouring of support has been enormous and such a blessing to our family.
