If you will, please remember this tiny baby in your prayers. Hes 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.
Hes a real trooper and is fighting with all his little body can fight with. His Grandma said that hes 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, Ive read the emails daily from my friend. Ive known her for years, Ive heard her talking about her family for years but Ive got to tell you that Im SO impressed with how her children have all banded together in support. What an incredibly wonderful and loving family.
Father God, we lift up Logans little body to you. We pray that you can strengthen him hourly, daily, weekly, until hes 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!!!

Things are going in the right direction. Thanks to good doctors and and a loving and ever present God.
Oh...my....he puts his hands to his little ears and wants the noise to do away...how bizarre...a rash that makes a noise..
That poor, poor little guy, and his poor parents --- it is so hard to have your baby hurting and there isn't anything you can do about it..
Continued prayers up!!
sleuth
It's INSIDE his ears...I don't know for sure, but I'm imagining that his breathing is causing the noise...
That was SO sad to read that...
Gosh...and I can't imagine there is anything they can do to relieve that either.
Be sure a let us know if you find out anything further..
Thanks for the update.
Thanks for the update. Sounds a little better for Logan.
Continued prayers.
Probably an update tomorrow night, after she gets home from visiting her Termite...AND pictures...
Prayers continuing for Logan.
Thanks Jim...thanks everyone....
Needless to say, the prayers are continuing!
Excellent news..
Prayer bump
Renewed prayers and increased devotion to a cause so worthy - the welfare of a child.
Poor little thing. He looks more like a fire ant than a termite!
I can't imagine how uncomfortable he must be. I guess it's best to keep him cool and hydrated now. Ears are such a difficult place to cope with when it comes to allergic reactions. Can they give him small doses of steroids for the itching?
Thank you BG~
SOOOOO good that things are sounding a bit better...
Still in our thoughts and prayers all of the time!
Sending Logan a (((BIG HUG))) from WA!
Hope that the itches get better and better...and the noise in the ears goes away!
Love you sweetie!
Aunti MO!
Don't know...gosh I wish I had more answers...
Whew!
Prayers continue for our sweet little guy and his family. Logan, we love you so much and hope you feel better real soon.
The wee one is our afflicted Job, Bless him for he by his presence blesses us.
Job 2:7 So went Satan forth from the presence of the LORD, and smote Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown.
Job 5:8 I would seek unto God, and unto God would I commit my cause:
Job 5:9 Which doeth great things and unsearchable; marvellous things without number:
Job 5:10 Who giveth rain upon the earth, and sendeth waters upon the fields:
Job 42:10 And the LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.
