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!!!

Then your butter is probably smaller than ours. Our butter is 8 oz. per cube. That makes only three. Even more AMAZING!! Praise the Lord for that.

Be at peace little one.. conserve your strength..Mommy and Daddy love you so much, and the Lord is with you, and so are we..

My Brothers little girl weighed 1lb 14 ounces at birth, my brother was in Viet Nam, we called the Red Cross, and they brought him home so fast..God Bless them..

She is now 30 years old, beautiful, and an X-Ray technician at a major hospital in Texas..

She is living proof of the miracle of God..

and Logan is too..

Much Love to you always..

Logan's Grandma and I were on the phone tonight, and she told me about this organization...I'm putting this out here in case there's people who like to sew (I do!) who may be interested.

http://www.threadsoflove.org/

Neither of us are affiliated with it, just for the record. But...if anyone happens to be reading this, who likes to sew...here ya go!

Prayers with Logan and the nurses and doctors who take care of him.

I work in a NICU in Tucson; I've seen many of these tiny babies grow, get better, and go home.

We have some very hard cases at the moment; I request your prayers, too.
