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!!!

Awww, Bless his little heart. Prayers have been sent for his total and speedy recovery from the surgery. Also prayers of comfort were sent for his family, in the name of Jesus.

Oh my ~
The pictures are wonderful!
The news is hard to hear though.
I can't even imagine one of my kids in this situation.

Nana, tell Beth, "We FReepers are ON THE JOB and Praying like crazy!"

And this is one group that KNOWS how to pray! Even me, who was not such a "prayer" before!

TEX... ping 'em again! It's the weekend~ their aren't as many folks here as usual! We can all pray more!

Praying REALLY HARD!

Oh Dear Lord, We hold up Baby Logan to you for healing! Let him rest peacefully and heal quickly. Let his need be known and spread so that other may pray too!
In Jesus Name,
AMEN

"Any more news yet?"

YES!

Beth was in to see him this afternoon, and while she was talking to him, he opened his little eyes!
This was brief, and then he was fast asleep again, but the fact that he opened them indicates he knows she's there!
She's going back tonight and try to talk him out of this deep sleep.
Her voice is his life line, and he reponds to it.

Thank you, dear Lord!

Thank you, freepers!

I'll post the news as I have it.

Logan knows about you Coasties!

He knows to hide his whiskey and his daughters when y'all are around!
