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!!!

May God continue to bless the both of you like He has been doing for 27 years!

We're all honorary members of his family, and we are so blessed.

Chokes me right up, TC. Proud to be an honorary Logan family member. Maybe we should get tee-shirts made. You think?

The Termite emailed me the other day and said that yes indeed, Cowboy DID teach him Anchors Aweigh. AND, it's his favorite song. Isn't that SWEET?

a friend who has 5 children of her own...and LOVES babies so much, she volunteers at the hospital....to just sit and rock the ones in need.

What a lovely lady. It may come to that for me if my kids don't stop raising fur children and have real babies. Logan has been such a boon; praying for him has done me a world of good. It feels great to be involved with a little one.

I've got a hug list compiled and it's gotten mighty long. That's why it's IMPERATIVE that that other man, what IS his name???? doesn't get in the way!

Dead. I'm dead. Oh yea.....

Raising fur children? HAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Well, look at it this way, Christmas doesn't cost as much!

And yes, praying for and being involved with Logan's life has been wonderful.

Once again,wonderful pix of our boy. Thank you so much.
I'm so happy to see his plump, pink little face. I want to bite those little cheeks like I used to do with my daughter.
Well, the little toot is certainly a celebrity. His pictures have been all over the country on FR and have graced the walls of my cubicle at the office here in New York City. It's Loganmania.
I'll keep my fingers crossed that the canula will be removed soon so his little nose can heal.
He's so precious and I'm grateful for all your updates.
Regards, Aunt Stanz.
