I’m so sorry. The emotions involved have to be whipsaw like. Not to mention wanting to be there for your baby (they’ll always be our babies, whether they like it or not).
Not getting to hold your granddaughter? Please know I’m sending positive thoughts for all of you. As others have said, I want to wrap you up in a gentle, non-COVID hug. Please take care of yourself too.

I can't begin to comprehend the amount of emotions all of you must be feeling.
Please know there is no right or wrong way to feel, just feel it, get it out. There is no shame in crying. None of us can be strong 100% of the time. And that's ok. That's healthy.
I think about you and your family every day. Ava is beyond strong. Her will to live is unmatched.I think she gets her strength from her grandmother.
Lots of love and positive thought to you.

Of course you feel those things....I'm so sorry...I can barely imagine and those thoughts are entirely real...you have all missed out on so much. I hope you can feel some hope tomorrow.

awwwww we all have that breaking point.... hang in there grandma.....is there ever a chance you will be able to go see her?? No one is allowed at the hospital and I don’t want to risk them by flying then being around them. Have you given any thought to flying there and then seeing them from a distance. It might do you and them some peace. My 32 year old daughter passed away 1-1/2 yr ago. It gave me great comfort to see her old friends from childhood. Coworkers from 1500 miles away flew in for overnight. It really helps.

So glad Ava is sitting up and that your family could experience the joy of this milestone. I know it has to be so challenging to walk the path you're all walking, but I have no doubt she's rallying because of your family's love and support. Take some time to feel all the feelings and know that the Peas are behind you keeping the faith and believing for happier days to come. Big hugs to all!

You must be so exhausted and sad. My heart is with you all.

It is most certainly okay to cry, and I’m sure you needed the release. It takes an enormous amount of energy to handle all the emotions you must all be feeling. I’m sure once you let loose with it all, you were able to muster up more composure and strength. You've all been through so much, and the ups and downs and general anxiety about what could be coming take their toll.

Wow! That’s a lot of hair for a 6 month old! It almost looks like she has a little bobbed hairdo!

Such a precious little doll! I’m sorry you hit a bit of a breaking point - of course you did. You are all going through so much, and have been on such a roller coaster. You needed to get those emotions out, and I’m glad you were able to do so. You are all in my continued prayers!

My gramma would have described Ava’s hair thusly, “Look at those luscious locks,” What a beauty your warrior granddaughter is!

Add me to the line of peas who want to give you a hug. I'm so sorry this has been so hard and painful for you and all your family. I pray every time I see this thread that Ava will be able to go home and live her wonderful life that's waiting for her. Lots of love to you.

No family should ever have to go through what Ava and all of you are enduring. You are entitled to manage that anyway you can. Especially on the days when you feel you simply can’t do it at all.
What a head full of hair she has! Lucious locks indeed.
