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

Myself | 8-11-03 | 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!!!

[Brad’s Gramma]

OK. I have the college thing settled.

He'll go to UCI and bunk with ME and the fam!

[Brad’s Gramma]

Well........sorta. Not really. I think. Oh boy....

Amen to your sincere and beautiful prayer for little Logan.
Prayers have been sent before the throne of God, from my heart, in Christ's precious name.

[Brad’s Gramma]

Thanks LucyJo! Welcome to Logan's thread, AND to Free Republic.

Now....have you read all of the thread (hahahahahaha...at this stage, A LONG READ, but well WELL worth it)? Are you up to date on the latest news?

[cubreporter]

Good news TC...she had some strong support beginning with you on down the line. Lots of extra thanks will be given this year. We ARE blessed and we DO thank God for all those blessings. Happy Thanksgiving. :)

"He'll go to UCI and bunk with ME and the fam!"

Well, you'd better make that a double bunk!
Where Logan goes, I go!

(Doggone, I HATE to go through boot camp again!)

[LucyJo]

LOL!!! Obviously hadn't read the whole thing...still haven't read it all, but saw those darling update pics! Just wanted to hug the puddin' out of him and steal a kiss. What a cutie! Gonna keep him my prayers..:)
Thanks for the welcome!

[Texas Termite]

Please! I'm not going to Texas or UCI. I'll be in College Station cheering for my beloved Aggies. We gotta keep the tradition going. But I will invite my 2 favorite people to my graduation when I graduate in 2025 :) Plan on being there please.

[Brad’s Gramma]

Oh no you don't, Missy. You go back and READ THE WHOLE THING TONIGHT. Yes, tonight!

LOL!!!!!!!

I WOULD recommend it, in all seriousness. You'll be in AWE over the miracles that have taken place on this thread. And not just our Logan...

[my_pointy_head_is_sharp]

Who's that man with the giant beard sprouting all over his face? He's scaring Logan! ;D

[cowgirlcutie]

Yea!!!!!!!!!!Texas Termite! What a fun holiday season this will be!

[Brad’s Gramma]

You'll have to discuss that w/Gramps. I'm not sure how he's gonna feel about YOU taking the top bunk. He's used to that bed, don'tchaknow?

[Brad’s Gramma]

You don't want to go to UCI? Oh shucks.

OK....I'll start shopping tomorrow for the PERFECT OUTFIT for your graduation.

[LucyJo]

Yes, ma'am! If not all of it tonight, then soon..:)

[Alamo-Girl]

Way to go, Termite! Praise God!!! Prayers continue...
