1/2 7 pm - J is at the hospital. I’m home. They will let us swap but not be together. The boys are with family. The dog is with his trainer. It’s better that J is there now because I had reached a point of constant uncontrollable sobbing, and that is not good energy for Molly.
Molly is ON the ventilator. I thought they were weaning her off but I guess I misunderstood. That’s the problem with having one parent who is in shock being there alone.
Today was basically uneventful for her, which is good. I love her surgeon. He said most additional bleeds and things of that nature show up within 6 hours of surgery. The farther out from surgery, the less likely we will see more injuries. Swelling is the major concern now.
They gave Molly less sedation to see what would happen. It was not unusual that she didn’t wake up. Now they are giving her more sedation to allow her brain to rest and decompress as much as possible.
A lot of what happens next is up to Molly. How her body reacts. One thing about our girl, she does things on her OWN time frame. We can’t rush her. All I care about is her waking up. But I know she’s going to do things her own way, as she has since birth.
So we wait. Thank you all for holding space for Molly and praying for our family. I’m just out of my head and can’t think of anything except that I need my girl, I need my girl, please G-d, let my girl come back. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. Please pray for her healing.
