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!!!

Last, but not least...FISHIES!



I! Love! You! LOGAN!!!!!!

KEWL, BG. I get two Logan fixes in the same day.

Our grandson is named Logan, also.

I sure have been thinking of Logan lately. (Never really forgot him.) But here in TX, we have a one minute moment of silence every day at the beginning of the day. I used it all last year to say a small prayer for Logan and others, and recently when school re-started I began it again. It occurred to me that when this thread reaches it's 1 millionth post and out little termite is graduating from high school, I will still be praying for him every day! God sure is great!

And it's because of people like you, YOUR faithfulness in prayer....that we sit here, grinning from ear to ear.

There are NO WORDS for the appreciation I feel for all of you being such good friends to my friend, Nana...and praying for this baby...no words.

The third pic with the butterfly (Texas size) is awesome.

Thanks for pinging. We needed a smile around here.

We have a request! Pictures of Logan watching the Republican Party Convention. LOL

Hope the reflux is getting better.

Prayers went up today for all of Logan's FR NICU buddies who have been on prayer threads. Hope all are happy and living life to their fullest regardless of any hurdles along the road.

Here are our lastest pics to share with Termite and family.

TERMITE! There you are!!!

Are you having a good day? Behaving yourself? Your Cuz Brad is at Knott's Berry Farm with his friends. It's a belated birthday. You wait. When you get older, I'm SURE your Nana would LOVE to bring you here and you & she could go there too.

Then the next day, you could go to Disneyland! And you could ride Small World. And then, the NEATEST thing happens! You canNOT get the song out of your head for a long time.

Your Nana won't like that.

Don't tell her ahead of time, OK?

Love you, Termite!
