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!!!

Please know that I remember Faith in my prayers. Hopefully, before too many years, a cure for MS will be found!

You were just partying all over Texas last week, weren't you? ;-)....Austin, Houston, and at Logan's house. Sometimes there are just more important things than working, huh?

Funny, I was on that 'taglineous' winners list 5 times till one time I mentioned it and have never been picked again!!

Don't know if 'he' still posts it. I collect funny things on Notepad, when I see them. Carol

Not to the bill collectors.
LOL!

I go back to work tomorrow.
Play time is over, darn it!

"Hopefully, before too many years, a cure for MS will be found!"

Faith and I were talking about stem cell research and treatment the other night.
It appears that stem cells go directly to the trouble area and repair the mylein sheath, thereby restoring the electrical path from the brain.
It is the best hope for MS patients at the present time.

I said, "So I guess you're in favor of stem cell harvest?"
She said, "Not unless they can find someplace else to get it besides aborted babies."

I DO love my daughter!

Good for Faith!!! That's a real no-brainer, for me...but for someone who's LIVING it...that says a lot for her character, TC.

Ya, he always pinged the ones he picked. I just went to the search box and typed in 'taglineous' and couldn't find it.

Had to do it for several different 'forums', general interest, chat, etc, and never found it!

Well, heck and gosh, you really are good!!

I'm heading for bed but write and tell me what forum you found it on, OK? I had checked general interest, chat and activism with no such thing!

I bookmarked it for future reference, LOL!

I understand!! The IRS is even less understanding. I have to make a quarterly tax payment today (the 15th)...that just doesn't seem right with it being my birthday!! Happy 39th to me, happy 39th to me, happy 39th and holding, happy 39th to me!!

Gee, thanks!

I was trying to forget that!

Happy Birthday, youngster!

You said you did a search for "taglineous"....I followed your lead and went into Chat and did a search using "taglines" with Keyword only. And it came right up.

Bookmark. Duh. I think I should do that, too. Huh!
