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!!!

Oh the photos of Logan are so sweet. He looks so shiny and healthy. Looking at his legs is so gratifying when I think back at his legs and how little they were in his early days. What a miracle birth is and then to see someone so weak and fragile come this far ... well, it is overwhelming to say the least.

God bless all of those on the prayers threads. Am sooooo glad to finally hear something about the remaining triplets. Oh, that does my heart so good. I was so worried about the remaining too but now they too are doing great and their parents along with Logans and everyone elses like TC can give thanks to the Lord on this very, very special Thanksgiving Day.

God bless everyone and thanks for posting the photos...they are priceless.

Thank you all for your prayers.

She was more alert today, able to recognize people, and is able to take food, but remains paralyzed on her right side.

The tumors are not operable, and no decision has been made yet by her and her family as to course of treatment or whether to treat.

"I see a linebacker in the making. :)"

Well, I guess he'll be a linebacker for the (choke, gag) Texas Aggies!

His Nana and I made a deal:

He goes to Texas A&M, then immediately after graduation he goes to MCRD in San Diego to earn his Globe and Anchor.

Thank you, mrtysmm.
My prayer list is also getting longer, and my memory is getting shorter.
I just have to remember that He knows what I need before I ask.

How sad, how very sad.

Our prayers continue. We pray for God's healing and mercy for her and her family.

Logan, Beth & Nana

Logan just gets more beautiful every time you post pictures. He is so adorable.

Father in heaven we lift in prayer all those listed in need on this thread. Thank You for the miracles and cures, thank you for healing. In Jesus name we ask and in the name of Jesus we thank You, amen.
