I agree with you, that everytime you tell your story, a little more healing takes place. <br /><br />God Bless.Jennifer Rosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14619769165667422761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6526766004112404235.post-72013193008361097892009-06-26T16:19:41.645-04:002009-06-26T16:19:41.645-04:00It is true that telling the story has very therape...It is true that telling the story has very therapeutic qualities for those who are already allowing themselves to heal. We cry as we remember; we cry as we type it out; we cry as we talk about it. But somehow it helps.<br /><br />And someday all this pain will be gone and we'll have our babies in our arms again. Alive and full of life. There will be no more pain.<br /><br />*hugs*Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03895587986129795555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6526766004112404235.post-34390940561881894472009-06-26T10:41:54.189-04:002009-06-26T10:41:54.189-04:00That was a long wait!

I had the same pit in my stomach driving to Dr. Joe's as I did that day in March. I too knew what the outcome would be, but I hoped to hear something unexpected. I guess you could say I was waiting on a miracle. The miracle came in the form of a beautiful son. Unfortunately, my prayer to get to heaven before he did went unanswered. But, I guess I must still earn my wings and serve HIM on earth. I will have to wait just a little bit longer until I see Grady again.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing your heart with us. We will wait with you!!<br />G-Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6526766004112404235.post-74921392921615070422009-06-26T01:45:25.087-04:002009-06-26T01:45:25.087-04:00Oh Tonya,

I loved hearing a bit more of your story even though it breaks my heart... it helps me to know more of the details and feelings you had that day. It helps me know how to continue praying for you, knowing what you specifically went through. All of those details make up part of Grady's story and your story. Don't you just wish for a different life story some days??? Most days??? I am just not there yet to fully accept it all. Tonya, just know I am thinking of you and lifting you and your sweet family up to our Lord the Great Healer. <br />SaraSarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17679265370655421932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6526766004112404235.post-60447485573026463872009-06-25T23:47:33.132-04:002009-06-25T23:47:33.132-04:00I am so sorry that you lost your sweet baby Grady....I am so sorry that you lost your sweet baby Grady. I have read the story before, but I just read this new postand was reminded once again of what you endured, and my heart aches for you. It is so hard. But I do thank God that we can trust in Him to bring us through day by day.<br />The memory never leaves us,...but the pain softens over time.<br />You know our story,...how our daughter Lynnette lost three of her precious children. At the time, the pain is so great that you feel as though you can not survive. But praise God, He does bring you through.<br /><br />Praying for you.<br />Linda @ Truthful TidbitsLindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17751356958497450109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6526766004112404235.post-69531536182234234992009-06-25T21:44:31.560-04:002009-06-25T21:44:31.560-04:00I'm not sure if my comment published or not......I'm not sure if my comment published or not...so I am leaving another. There was some sort of glitch when I tried to leave my comment! Anyway...I just wanted to thank you for sharing another part of your beautiful Grady's journey with us. Your words tugged at my heart and reminded me of the time just before I met my own babies. You are so right that there is healing in the telling of our stories...in the sharing of the stories of those we love. Thank you so much for joining us this week on Walking With You...and for your very kind words. Your family is in my continued prayers...as I know He carries you...Kelly @ Sufficient Grace Ministrieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11182310611088290551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6526766004112404235.post-54611962852998446452009-06-25T21:42:48.438-04:002009-06-25T21:42:48.438-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Kelly @ Sufficient Grace Ministrieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11182310611088290551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6526766004112404235.post-90390196226330140932009-06-25T19:18:26.568-04:002009-06-25T19:18:26.568-04:00Tonya - That helps me understand why I rethink thr...Tonya - That helps me understand why I rethink through my story many times in my head and why I like to re-tell it to others. I love talking about my babies. I am so proud of them, and (like you said) I love to keep the memory of them alive. <br /><br />I'm so sorry you had to go though that painful waiting.

I often wonder what scenario is worse: knowing you're delivering your baby who's gone or delivering a baby you think is alive only to find out the opposite (my situation). Both are just so utterly painful - it is so hard to think about, but I do, often. More often lately I find I'm able to think about the details of that painful morning and sort through the events. It used to be too hard, but like telling your story is healing, reliving the events helps too. I'm able to see a little bit of the beauty in all the pain. Someday, a day I long for, I will look back on that painful time as completely beautiful because it's the only time I had with Felicity. <br /><br />Praying for you too, sweet friend!<br />RachelRachelhttp://rachelontherange.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
