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!!!
Proud member of Team Logan since 8-11-03! < :D
What adorable pictures. I always called my Logan "Tigger". Of course when he turned three or four he insisted I call him Spiderman or FastLogan.
I knew all along that Texas Termite would become Texas Tiger! Love to y'all and a prayer of thanks.
WHOOOO HOOOO!!
I just WISH I lived close to TT so I could give him MASSIVE AMOUNTS of junk candy and toys!!
WE LOVE YOU, TT!
Check back....I'm hoping for more pics soon!
Team Logan?
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We are on a health kick this year. Treats will be stalks of broccoli around here. Ask Logan would broccoli be a good treat for trick or treaters (if we add cheese sauce).
Logan, I'm told, eats most anything. He'd probably enjoy that! ;)
Such A BIG BOY!
And as Handsome as ever!
King Vanity is loving his Marine Biology classes.
He can't wait untill the Shark dissection class.
OP is now 45lbs lighter and going. Walking four Labs up hills and swimming laps will do that.
Life is Good!
Bump to Logan Fixes are theraputic, nationwide.
I almost named my 2yr old Lab after Logan, but there is only one original.
That's our boy! Grrrr, Logan! (Save some chocolate for Aunty Bev!)
UPDATE ON TC.....
Well I finally got to talk to TC today. He is staying strong in his vision to get into treatment, but admits that he's having a hard time right now.
He's been home for 3 days. A milestone! They were able to treat the lung to try and stop it from filling with fluid and so far, it seems to be doing the job.
We didn't stay on the phone long. Anything "extra" takes a lot of energy from him. We were able to let Logan tell him "TT" and "Bye, wuv you" and that did bring a chuckle from TC. The baby has NOT forgotten him and when he hears me talking on the phone, if I mention TC's name, he starts yelling to talk to him. They have a very special bond these two. His little prayer always includes TC. He doesn't utter the prayer, but folds his hands while we pray for his Uncle TC. I know God and His angels are listening.
Faith is not doing good right now either. This is really taking a toll on her and she has missed some treatments because of the time factor involved in helping her dad. Please include her in your prayers. She and Joel have done everything they can to take care of TC in the best possible way. It's no wonder he loves her so.
To everyone who remains steadfast in their prayers and well wishes, Thank you. I will again update when there is more news. Hopefully the next time I post, it will be to announce that he has at least started radiation for the brain cancer and perhaps even the other long awaited treatment.
God bless........
