Broken
At 10:36am, Wednesday March 27th our son Graham Albert Grady came into this world asleep.
At 3:45pm, Wednesday March 27th our daughter Savannah Celeste Grady came into this world and shortly after passed away.
We are completely and totally broken right now.
To hold not one, but two of your children lifeless in your arms...
To immediately see all of the dreams that will never be...
To feel the creation of a gigantic void that can never ever be filled...
To cry so hard and know that the tears will never stop and will continue long after today...
I have written about many things in this blog and I have spoken about those same things to family and friends. We did what we could to prepare and we were truly focusing on gratitude and being thankful for what our babies brought into our lives from the very beginning....
... while I still believe all of those things deep down in my heart, the truth is right now I feel completely hopeless, completely lost, and shattered beyond repair.
The truth is nothing can prepare you for what my wife and I went through these past few weeks. The amount of hurt is equal to the amount of love we have for these kids and not until we held their tiny bodies in our arms could we have even imagined how great that love truly is.
My wife... my beautiful, amazing wife. Oh how I wish I could have taken some of this suffering away and put it all on my shoulders... what you had to go through is too much for anyone to have to endure in a million lifetimes. I can only promise you that I love you, that I will never stop loving you, that I will never leave your side and I will carry us through these impossibly difficult times to a place where we can smile once again.
Savannah Celeste and Graham Albert.... we wish we could have had so much more time with you on this earth. Your mother and I are so sad and hurt only because we love you SO MUCH! And it is a love that we would have never of known without the two of you. Yes we are in pain right now but we will not let your memory be something that makes us feel sad... we refuse to let your legacy be what didnt happen and instead always remember what DID happen. You are both miracles to us.
You made us parents. You made us the luckiest parents in the whole world.
We miss you so much already. I dont know how we will get through tonight, or tomorrow or the next day... but for the both of you we will. We will find a way.
Ryan, Michele, Savannah and Graham (and Oscar and Bandit) ... we are and forever will be The Grady Family.
Sweet dreams my angels... tell Grandpa and Uncle Bobby we miss them too
