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!!!

Well, I've looked that truck over and I don't think it's stock.
It's probably bored and stroked with a full race cam.
If Nana takes my picture on it I can sell it to the racing magazines.

Oh yeah. Now THAT would be something, wouldn't it? I personally don't suggest you do that.

Ya might lose your reputation, among other things.

You're not the only one! I hear, though...he's not "in" to that sort of thing. He's a bizzy little boy.

"I just wanna hugs and mush that little boy."

Yeah, I do, too, but I'm told that since I've seen him last, he prefers a handshake.
Shucks! He's gonna get some hugs whether he likes it or not!

Will never stop praying for Logan - and Nana and whoever needs a lift!

A HAIRCUT??? WOW, things grow faster in TX! Ollie sure doesn't need one yet. Hope he likes it!

I bet he did like the french fry! LOL!

Oh, and BTW -- thanks for STARTING this prayer thread. You certainly helped save his life. I am very grateful to G-d that we got to have Logan and may he live to be 120!

TC, I thought you came up with all those captions! Nana, I give you the credit now! They are precious and either make me laugh or get teared up.

Thanks for all the photos! I love that John Deere ride-on and I wanna get it for L'il Mr. O.!

I can't believe I missed it! The big 10,0000! Only a few posts over the last few weeks, so I thought it would take several days to get the 40 needed to get there. And then BAM! Overnight! Things went so fast. I am still amazed at the enormity of all of this. I just wonder what the post number will be 40 years from now??

PS: I thought we were going to save the big one for Logan??
