On March 1, 2022, Grady was in a horrible car accident. His pelvis was shattered to pieces. I'm writing this a year later and don't even want to think about it. Maybe I will come back later and add to this. Maybe not. A parent should never watch their child dying in the hospital.
Cards from Emma's class. "you need to go to the doctor"
"Flaming Parte"
"Get bebr sun"
Josh and I alternated nights and slept in this "bed".
Josh's adult coloring book
ICU room
After a week, he was taken of the ventilator and woken up
First day out of bed
First day rolling around
From Chimney Rock. I took a leave of absence for 6 months
From Kate. It's Grady's most hated teacher and dog
Getting more blood
Battleship
Emma and Myles couldn't visit due to covid restrictions
After 2 weeks in the ICU, Grady was moved to the regular floor
First day outside
The nurses were amazing. Hooking me up with coffee
Max, Milo and Kate snuck in to see Grady
He finally came home
He had a set back. Infection in the wound site. We had to go back to the hospital. More surgery, wound vac put in.
The ambulance had to come. He was so upset to go back. The EMTs gave him a ton of goodies because they felt so bad for him
😊
Finally out. First trip to ingles after a month in the hospital
Stuck in bed for months
Acupuncture was the only thing that helped with the pain.
One sad kid
First time out with the guys
I took a look in the rear view mirror and saw this mess looking back at me.
First time in the car
