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!!!

Update on our beloved social worker:

She's out of ICU; breathing on her own; but is unresponsive, and cannot move one side of her body.

Not good news, I'm sorry to say.

"but first I have to help them to get well."

And if it weren't for people like you, D., Logan wouldn't be here with us.
Y'all are God's tools.

Uncle TC... you KNOW I will be an Aggie!!! No horns for me! My Nana's daddy and my Uncle G are both Aggies. We wouldn't have it any other way. In fact, remember that we told you that even though you were a tea sipper, we forgave you because everyone's entitled to one little mistake in life????

"Oh good grief."

Now repeat after me:

"Good grief" is an oxymoron.

(No, I didn't call you an ox or a moron)

A "tea sipper" is what they call people from Texas U. Aunti N. We'll teach y'all all the Texas talk when you get here. Uncle TC knows what I'm talkin' about :)

"you KNOW I will be an Aggie!!!"

Ahhhh....poor little Termite!
You've been brainwashed!

That's okay. I've had training in un-brainwashing.
We'll have you mentally sound in no time!

"A "tea sipper" is what they call people from Texas U. Aunti N."

And "tea sippers" have a few choice descriptions for Aggies, too, BG.
I'd better tell you those in person.
Do you blush easily?
