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!!!

Oh my God. I just saw your post and my heart is thumping.
I hope the little guy is O.K. We ( my daughter and I) were just discussing his Christmas goodies and decided what would be perfect for him.
Please tell Beth and Nana that Auntie Stanz and Noelle send their love and give the little Termite a big Texas hug for us.
Please keep in touch!

I'm repeating part of my reply, here:
RSV is nasty stuff for the little ones, especially if they have any underlying lung disease. For most kids, it's "croup." For Adults and bigger kids, it's laryngitis or just a bad cold with a sore throat.

There's usually 2 days in the middle that are really bad, then they turn the corner and get better. (Even for the really small or sick little ones.)
