Please forgive me for essentially plagiarizing an existing title (no I don't work for the NYT), but it's very important to me and what better way to get the attention.
Please keep little Connor in your thoughts and prayers. He is the son of a very good friend of mine since college. Due to a medical condition in his mother, he was delivered at 27 weeks. When born he weighed in a 2lbs. 3oz. and is now hovering around 1lb. 14 oz.
His lung development so far has exceeded expectations and he did cry upon "removal" but, needless to say, he will remain in NICU for the foreseeable future. He is being fed via the vein in his umbilical cord. He is doing as well as can be expected, so far so good. However there are many hurdles still to come. Mom is doing better and is recovering from the C-section.
Please send all of the good vibes and prayers you can to little Connor and his parents. They can use all of the help they can get.
BTTT!!!!!!

Keep fighting little Connor. May God bless each breath and in time may He reveal His plan for your life.

Prayer bump for baby.
Saw that on FR....sent prayers then and will continue to do so for this new little one.
Prayers up for baby Conner and family!
Prayers sent for baby Connor and his mom and dad!
My wife and I just had out fourth daughter on September 15. She came four weeks early, as my wife was experiencing preclemsia and low anionic fluid. She came out crying and immediately began experiencing breathing problems. Jennifer was taken to NICU and was released two weeks later. Currently she has a voracious appetite and wakes us up every two to three hours.
The level of care and expertise at the NICU is laudable. They rarely lose a child. However, seeing your child hooked up to IV’s and machines is traumatic. Our thoughts and prayers go out to your friend, her husband and child.
Prayers sent for young Connor and his family.
Prayers going up!
PRAYERS FOR CONNOR!
Praying for Connor, his family and his doctors. God bless them with every need toward the survival and good health of this precious little one.
I join in urgent prayer for this little one!
I don't know about good vibes. But prayer goes up to HIM that can. May HE allow this tiny baby the gift of a long and eventually healthy life, in Jesus's name so be it.
Answering this call to prayer for one of God's wee ones. May the Lord be with Connor, his parents, and the medical professionals caring for him!
My prayers offered for the baby and family.
Prayers for Connor and for parents.

Thanks for the ping BG. Prayers going up for another precious one.
My daughter had a little girl 8 weeks, but smaller than expected for even that size...2LBS.9Oz. early...
..she's now 10-1/2 months old and is thriving!
She's all caught up, weight & height and everything! and is beautiful and bright!
Today's NICU is fantastic....the nurses are there for those babies!
Prayer is powerful!
