Prayer Request for A Tiny Baby (Update in post #12850)
Myself | 8-11-03 | Brad's Gramma

Posted on 08/11/2003 12:57:30 PM PDT by Brad’s Gramma

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

Fellow Freepers…….I bring you Logan!!!

Thank you from the BOTTOM of my heart, each of you, for praying for Logan this past year. You've all been so faithful in your prayers. Those of us who have been here from Day One remember those ups and downs, don't we? The little itty bitty, yet MONUMENTAL triumphs Logan had and then the terrifying QUICK PRAY NOW, PRAY HARD times.

THANK YOU LORD for hearing our prayers. Thank you for taking care of Logan. For letting him now be a healthy, happy, ACTIVE little guy. He came home from the hospital. His canula came off. His first Christmas. His FIRST BIRTHDAY!!! His first tooth. He's first taste of ribs...and yesterday, his first french fry. This coming week...his first haircut. And Nana...my dear friend Nana....thanks to ALL OF YOU for those prayers for her, too.....

Wow. What a road it's been.

So? Onward and upward dear Logan.

Fall is coming, and I think I'll have to find that little Smiley with the green airplane and start posting....Are We There Yet? Are We There Yet? Are We There Yet?

I love you all. Thank you again for the prayers. Please don't ever stop. You're all family now. God bless you richly...you and your families.

BG

Isn't this something else?????? WHAT a wonderful year this has been!

M0sby did an AWESOME job of putting that together. Wait till Nana turns on her computer, logs on with her dial-up and sits there.

And sits there.
And sits there.

I know many of us do feel like family. No matter how busy we get or what happens in our lives, Logan is there to remind us there are miracles and God does answer prayers.
