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!!!

Hi, cubbie!

Logan melts his mommy's heart just like he does mine.

I hope it's on the menu for Wednesday night.
Otherwise, I'll be knocking on your door about midnight tomorrow night.

I get pretty violent when I'm eating something like a yellow cake with chocolate icing with Blue Bell ice cream.
You may need to repaint after I leave.

That's safer as long as the neighbors don't mind the slobbering and snorting sounds.

Just wanted to give an update on my friend's early arrival. Daniel is doing very well. Up to 4.5 lbs. now and is expect to be moved to an open bed this week. He's making great progress.

Thanks to everyone for their prayers ... even though y'all didn't know his name. ;o)
