Evening update

So here's a quick update. No changes since the last CT scan. Coby and Cora brought him a Burger King crown and the nurse let them take a picture of him with it on his head (with a towel covering him by the way). They cover his head every time those little guys are in there so they don't have to see the drains coming out, the incision, staples, etc. They are in great spirits. They are confused but they also know that they are very much loved and we just keep telling them that 'daddy's going to be ok'. Coby even got a print out of his CT scan to take to show n' tell. We might even post a picture tomorrow...so stay tuned.

I think I need to just say a couple things about his condition. Things are serious. The point of this blog is to try and stay positive and post positive things. But, I don't want to give too much false hope either. Scott's condition is very serious. Very. He has blood leaking under his eye, he looks like he's been beat up. The nurses say that he's going to start looking a lot worse before he looks better. When I say he wakes up, it's him opening his left eye a little bit for about 1-2 seconds. When you go in there, it's hard for everyone to see him. There's a ventilator helping him breath, there are about 20 wires connected to him, half his hair is shaved, his head is not round since part of his skull is missing. It's scary. We don't know how long he's going to be here. They don't even want to try taking the venitilator out for a couple days. We got to see his CT scan today and you can see the brain swelling outside of the skull.

I will say that no change in his condition is a good thing. His vitals are staying even. His blood pressure is good, his kidney function is good. They give him a sedative that makes him have partial amnesia, so he won't remember all these things that he is going through. There is great comfort in knowing that.

Please keep all your comments coming. It means the world to us just to have you say something and know that you care.
