HUNTSVILLE -
On July 31st Molly Moses, her dad and a friend went night fishing on the Tennessee River.
They had an accident. A bad one. Molly sustained several life threatening injuries. Injuries that still have her in the hospital. Now she's telling her story exclusively to WHNT News 19's Amber Stuart.
When you're in the hospital for 3 months, no one gives you a hard time when you re-decorate.
A zebra-striped blanket, a string of party lights and pictures of all your B.F.F.'s fill Molly Moses hospital room.
"It has been an adventure for sure," said Molly Moses.
Instead of breaking in her new driver's license Molly Moses has been fighting for her life.
Amber: How do you do it everyday?
"I don't know. I just do it day by day. I just try, I just tell myself you'll be out of here soon just keep fighting for it. I just know I have to be strong for myself and for everybody else," said Molly Moses. "And I know I can cry, I cry a lot. I just try to tell myself you know not much longer and you'll be home and be out of here."
Her father has been fighting a battle of his own.
Amber: Tell me how this has been for you, since the accident happened, knowing that you were the one driving the boat.
"It's hard. You can't describe how you feel. I mean I was worried at first that people would blame me," said Molly's father Brian Moses. "I was worried that molly would think you know that if she wouldn't have made it, if something would have happened. I would have felt like it was my fault. I kept saying I need her to tell me, you know look I know you didn't do something wrong."
The irony of Molly's story, is they were so close to just calling it a night. They stopped at one more fishing hole.
"The boat just jerked right," said Molly.
Brian had never witnessed anything like it before.
"The boat just took a sharp right hand turn. I really thought the steering cable had broke on the boat, is what i thought had happened."
Molly and a friend of Brian's were thrown out.
"So whenever it did, it went ahead and went in a circle and whenever it did that's when it got me," said Molly.
Molly saw it coming.
"It was like a flash of a camera. But it was too fast to do anything about it."
