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]

OUCH! OUCH! OUCH!!!! You get BETTER!!!

Thank you SO MUCH for praying for Logan...those prayers have been and continue to be heard and answered.

Well, I went to see the Termite today, folks!

I didn't do this for me! I did this for all of you that can't get to see him!
It was a lot of effort, but I don't mind sacrificing myself for all of you.
I didn't have any fun seeing the little tyke.
It was pretty boring, but someone had to do it.

Now that I've got you convinced of that, let's talk about that ocean view property I've got for sale in Baghdad!

The Termite has decided that he's not a baby any longer!
He has become a little boy right under our noses!
He doesn't like to be held like a baby, and he doesn't want to be treated like a baby!
He likes to be bounced and tumbled around like a bull rider - the rougher, the better!
Typical Texas youngun!

He goes back to the doctor man tomorrow for him to check on his surgery recovery, but it looks good from what I can tell.
He's doing just great, folks!

If anyone wants these threads to keep, let me know.
I've got them all on CDs.

BG, would you use your ping list?
I know I left some people off.
I keep having to change computers (I know, that's a lousy excuse!)

[Yaelle]

Thank you for these!!! Naw, you don't look like you were having ANY fun with the Termite! No siree!!!!!

That little Logan is teething up a storm; it is soooo obvious. Teeth coming through are going to be so NOTHING compared to all he's been through.

I am curious; does anyone have his stats, height and weight? I just know that li'l Texan is going to pass up our Peanut any day now. Oliver is 13 months old and weighs a bit less than 17 lbs. He is 29 inches long. A Peanut.

G-d bless Logan; I pray for him every day. I love getting these updates. He certainly is turning into quite the big boy.

Well, I am certainly glad you made it through your "ordeal". Someone had to do it!:-)
I LOVE THE PICTURES!!! Especially the first couple ;-)

WOW! That little one is growing by leaps and bounds! My husband was looking over and asked,"where are all of the tubes?"...HOORAY!!! NO TUBES!!!
He is so precious!
Thanks TC, for the update!
He is getting downright boring! HOORAY!!!
Love to you both!

Heavenly Father, we return to give You thanks that there is none like unto You. Man is Your crowning creation, and Your precious little ones are the stars in the crown of mankind. We place these precious babes before You, O Lord, as we would place crowns before You in worship and praise. May baby Logan draw many people unto Yourself throughout his lifetime, for surely he is blessed by the Hand of God. In the Name of Jesus, we thank You, Amen ...

[Brad’s Gramma]

In Jesus Name, AMEN!!!

Pegita, and everyone....I've said it before many times, and will continue...THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for praying for this precious baby and his family.

If ANY of us ever doubt the power of prayer, come back to this thread and reread it.

G-d Bless EACH of you!!

[JohnHuang2]

Great pictures -- thanks for sharing! More prayers on their way...

He's 25 inches long, Yaelle.
He'll be weighed tomorrow at the doctor man's, and I'll pass it on.
