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!!!

Bless his heart...

Prayer heavenward for an incredibly speedy recovery.

Caladryl or Sarna works well for the itching. Back when Psycho had a horrid case of chickenpox we used Sarna and she could actually sleep.

LOL!!! Sure, I'm feeling bad for the little guy ... but like several others who've commented, I think that last picture is a hoot -- look at that expression! Logan's a tough little fella....

Oh my...the things that happen when you are away from the computer for a couple of days.

Thank you for the PING BG.

Nana and TT,

We are praying and PRAYING as we have prayed before.
The pictures are terrible...but Logan looks like he is managing to keep a smile on his face through it all.
I want to thank you for the pictures.
IT IS SO HELPFUL to see them, so that we know what to look out for should our children develop a condition as severe looking as this one looks.
Those are ANGRY looking welts and blisters.

My heart hurts, thinking of our little man in this condition.

Thank you for the updates.
I am sorry I wasn't here sooner.

Praying and praying and waiting to hear more.

We love you to the ends of the earth and beyond

Many hugs.

Aunti Mo

Prayers continue for our Logan, that he eat and drink and flush this out of his system. I did notice that even in the midst of this he still has that Logan twinkle in his eye. Bless his little heart.

Wow....I guess I should have read back to the first of the thread....but, by the time I joined in, I just made a mistake one shouldn't....I ASSUMED that by the way TC and Logan were spoken about, that they were related..

I am sorry if I offended anyone by my mistake.

But, you are correct, I am sure that TC is watching out for Logan as we speak.
