Bills legend Jim Kelly shares 'amazing' grandson update on personally tragic day

Former Buffalo Bills quarterback Jim Kelly, who famously led the team to four consecutive Super Bowls, continues to ask for prayers after his grandson was born with "unexpected medical complications."

Kelly's eldest daughter, Erin Kelly-Bean, who's married to Parker Bean, welcomed their first child together last month. However, 30 days after his birth, "Little Bean" remains hospitalized.

The NFL Hall of Famer shared in a previous post, "Erin and Parker have asked that we do not share his most beautiful name yet with the public, because they still want to announce him to the world."

While things appeared to be moving in the right direction after a successful surgery last week, "Little Bean" still faced an uphill battle. Two failed attempts for his grandson to stop taking medication left Kelly feeling defeated.

"We are completely spent, spiritually, emotionally, physically, mentally. We have no words," he wrote, "We don’t know how we’re going to keep going. Sorry for being this raw."

Kelly also paid tribute to his late son in a moving post on August 5.
