If you will, please remember this tiny baby in your prayers. He’s the grandson of a very dear friend of mine. Logan was born on July 25. His due date was in October, making his mommy 26 weeks along, being born 3 months and 3 days early.
Logan was 1 lb 9.4 oz when he was born and is now weighing, as of this morning, 1 lb. 8.3 oz. The little guy is now 12-1/2” long.
He’s a real trooper and is fighting with all his little body can fight with. His Grandma said that he’s starting to recognize his mommy when she comes in the room and hears her voice. She said he tries so hard to open his eyes, and starts kicking his feet.
I asked my friend if there were any specific prayers, other than the obvious…and this is her reply…” A prayer of thanks for the miracle called "Logan.”
On a personal note, I’ve read the emails daily from my friend. I’ve known her for years, I’ve heard her talking about her family for years…but I’ve got to tell you that I’m SO impressed with how her children have all banded together in support. What an incredibly wonderful and loving family.
Father God, we lift up Logan’s little body to you. We pray that you can strengthen him hourly, daily, weekly, until he’s grown enough to go home with his precious family. We ask for guidance for the doctors and nurses who are caring for him. We ask for strength for his parents and extended family. Thank you so much for the gift of life. In Jesus’ Name, Amen

Here's the latest sonogram. You can see how huge the bowel has become because of the blockage. The "beads" by it's head is the umbilical cord. It's holding it in it's hands. Boy will it be nice to call this baby He or She instead of It!!
"Uncle G" said they will start the labor meds at 5 am. So stay tuned...... we'll have a baby before too much longer.......
I will say a prayer for your grandbaby and all of you! My 16 year old was born with several birth defects (all part of a syndrome) and I remember vividly how scary it was. God saw us through and blessed us with brilliant and dedicated surgeons and doctors. I pray the same for you all.
Thanks, justsaynomore....to those of you new to this thread, as I sort of used trussell’s ping list too....this baby is not my grandbaby.
He/she is Logan’s cousin. His Nana’s name is....Logan’s Nana. (clever, huh?)
:)
Thank you SO much for the prayers....God got Logan through all of the scares, I have faith He’s now going to get Logan’s cousin through the same....
We all covet your prayers....and we thank you dearly for them.
Uh oh, thanks for pinging me. I didn’t know about this baby.
Lord be with the babe and it’s mom. We ask you humbly to take care of all the complications and give the family a healthy baby. Thank you Lord, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Prayers up for this little one!
Prayers for The Bean, and Mommy and Dad...for the doctors and all the family.
