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!!!
BUMP!
Best Wishes!

That is just beautiful devolve!!
I was just reading through this thread after Smartass posted the 23rd Psalm which is also so beautiful.
I believe I posted somewhere early on on this thread because I once went through the same thing. I had a baby son born prematurely and weighed only 2 1/2lbs.
This was many years ago and we lost him. I am so glad to see that Logan is doing well and it will soon be a year!!
Oh MY! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!
I'm sorry your baby went Home so early, potlach...I really really am.
For everyone coming here "late to the game"....it's now Logan's Nana's turn for prayer. She had a minor heart attack sometime last week. She's in the hospital and is having tests done tomorrow. Please, if you will, add her to your prayers.
TexasCowboy or I will post an update sometime tomorrow, whenever we find something out. Thanks!!!
I'll add her to my prayers. Thanks for your kind words.
Dear Jesus,
Thank you for Your tender love and mercy.
Please watch over this little baby and please
bring comfort, peace, and rest to Logan's
family. Please guide the doctors, nurses,
and staff as they watch over baby Logan.
I am asking a lot here, Lord, but no matter
what you decide; I thank You.
In Jesus' name I pray.
Amen.
Guess what?
He DID answer our prayers!!! WHOO HOOOOOOO!!!!! Ya ready?
Huh? Are ya?
What?
Well? You ready?
:-)
That is one happy looking boy !!
Dear Lord Jesus,
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
In Jesus' name.
Amen.
Hang on...I'm going to find something for you.
Thanks for the update. Prayers up for TT's Nana to be all better FAST!
Logan, I missed an update -- so glad your lungs are clear and your teeth are coming in. Don't bite anyone now! As fun as it may seem! You will have so much fun crawling -- there is so much to do and see.
Prayers going up for the most precious little baby and his Nana. Let us know her progress, BG!
