He will probably be just fine. There’s some coughing and difficulty with breathing and wheezing but ultimately it is a respiratory virus that practically all children have to deal with. It takes a couple of days. Oxygen and humidity, and a constant temperature of the environment will provide comfort. Also the presence of one or two parents or another close family member. Prayers are on they sure can’t hurt but they don’t help a whole hell of a lot except to make the prayers offerer feel like they did something

Prayers....don’t help a whole hell of a lot...

I dunno man. I personally have witnessed previously unchanged adverse health conditions go away for reasons unknown except for the fact that prayer was performed over the person with the condition. One particular was an approx 1/2" diameter open wound on the bottom of MY foot where I could literally pick dead flesh out from it when I was about 16 years old. My dad prayed over it and 3 days later it was about gone. Absolutely honest to God truth.

I disagree. It may often seem that way,that prayers don’t help, but I had a personal experience that there is no explanation for besides supernatural. I wont go into all the details. I had a 2.5 month old son go thru the windshield and on to the pavement during a terrible car accident. He survived the crash but was given little hope. I was told that IF he survived he would have severe brain damage due to skull fractures. There was nothing they could do for him. Three days later our church of 10,000 people prayed for him. Afterwards I went to the hospital and he was out of intensive care....home in less than a week. Doctors could not explain. Straight A student. Totally normal. Prayer.
