This very long terrible journey continues.....Poor Ryan is still suffering. They are trying all they can to try to keep him comfortable. Ry just has an amazingly strong heart and now a very high tolerance for pain medication...Hopefully he will not be suffering much longer.
Though words cannot describe this tragedy, perhaps there's a smidging of solace that can be found. To quote a passage from Dylan Thomas's
DO NOT GO GENTLE INTO THAT GOOD NIGHT
"Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light."
An explication of this poem is that the speaker admits that death is unavoidable, but encourages all men to fight death. This is not for their own sake, but to give closure and hope to the kin that they will leave behind.
Feel the love around you of so many people in awe of your family's strength and courage. May the thoughts and prayers of others give you some comfort and peace. Ryan and all of you are enveloped in endless love and caring. With all our love, Cynthia, Mary Ann, Jackie, & Anna
We are thinking of all of you and Ryan constantly. We cannot even begin to imagine how heartbroken and exhausted you must be. After getting to know Ryan we talked several times about what a special person he was. After meeting you guys ... we realized why he was so special. We wish so much that there was something that we could do to help ease your pain. Carey and Suzanne Grover
Everone has your family and Ryan in their thoughts and prayers down here in Texas.. You are such a strong and enduring family. May peace and comfort come to you and Ryan soon. Jamie and the Rehab dept at Brack
We are praying for peace to come for all of you. You have had to endure more pain and suffering than any other family we know. Our hearts constantly break for you ....
My heart is breaking once again for the Creeden family. I think of you all often and I am saying prayers for everyone, especially Ryan, so he may soon be at peace.. Jeannie Wallin
Peace will come to Ryan soon. When that time arrives, his soul will be free once again. He will rock the heavens with his amazing spirit, humor and personality. Have no doubt that he will always shine down on you and be with you always. I know that his spirit will live on within the hearts and souls of everyone who knows and loves him. He will never be forgotten. Jan T.

Ryan was in a car accident early the morning of February 26 in Austin TX.
Then he went to Braintree Rehab for about 9 days after TX for Neuro rehab. While he was there his feeding tube fell out and it was not put back in correctly. This led him into septic shock and is suffering from peritonitis and other complications.
In our thoughts and prayers......
