DAYS OF OUR LIVES

MY GRACE

DISCLAIMER:

Days of our lives and characters do not belong to me.

SUMMARY:

Sami's P.O.V. on Grace dying...

My Grace,

I sit beside her bed and pray that she will get better.

I remember holding her for the first time and everything in these last few months of her life.

Dr. Jonas says to be prepared for her to die. I can't and won't accept that as I keep praying for her.

How could this happen to Grace?

It's my fault she is in the hospital.

Will comes in and holds his sister I know he is saying goodbye. A short while after Will goes back out in the hallway, my father comes in.

I lean against him and begin to cry once more.

I ask and beg for a reason why this is happening. I hold her, Rafe beside me for support. I know he is crying to, he loves her as much as I do.

He had plans to adopt her, now he won't get a chance.

As I sit there and watch the monitor flat lines and after a minute Dr. Jonas comes in to turn it off.

My Grace is gone, I am still crying.

Now I will have to explain to Will's younger brother and sister, that their sister is dead.

I walk into the apartment and freeze for a moment.

There by the couch sits Grace's playpen. I walk over and pick up a toy out of it.

Then I send Rafe to get Johnny, while Will goes to get Allie.

I am left alone and pull out Grace's baby book. I begin to flip through the pages.

Why did Grace have such a short life?

I know she touched many people in Salem.

What seems like hours, but was probably less goes by.

Will brings his friend Mia and his little sister Allie, Rafe brings Johnny.

I am glad to see all my kids, almost all my kids.

I remember Grace is gone.

I do not know how I'll survive losing my Grace.

THE END
