Prayer Request for A Tiny Baby (Update in post #12850)

Myself | 8-11-03 | Brad's Gramma

[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!!!

Amazing what God and medicine can do, isn't it? My prayers for tiny little Logan.

Prayer sent and God bless this little baby. My first daughter was 11 weeks early at 1 lb 14 oz and is now 15 and 5'7" and full of spit and vinegar. There is a lot of hope here.

Boy, that brings back memories. I had twin boys born at 24 weeks. My firstborn, Aaron, weighed 1 lb 4 ozs and my second, Ryan, weighed 15.5 ozs at birth. Aaron didn't make it and went to be with the Lord 5 days after his birth. Ryan is now 4 years old and is all boy. He has had little physical effects from being so early and he will be starting pre-k in a few weeks (man, time fly's). The stay in the NICU is long, but there is an end to the tunnel, and by God's power and grace, these little little ones can do well. He is in control.

Peace.

Dear Lord, please help baby Logan.

I suspect this kid will be a world-beater when he grows up ... as he most definitely will!

God has given us so many miracles, I will pray that Logan will be touched by his grace and that his family will have God's loving touch surrounding them.

Praying for little Logan. Our granddaughter, Steph, recently had a little preemie, Maya but she was 4 lb. That was scarry enough.

Thank you so much!

My mother was three months premature and weighed about as much as Logan. This was in 1905 in Istanbul. She grew up to be a strong and healthy woman and passed away at the ripe old age of 90.

Prayers for baby Logan.
