I would like to ask all of you to pray for my friend, Marijon's granddaughter. Her name is Sara Grace. She was born on June 6, 2003, 3 months early. She weighed 1 pound 6 ounces at birth. She has been in neonatal ICU since that time. At 2 weeks of age, she had to have a colostomy for perforated bowel. As you can imagine, she has had ups and downs, but as of last week was weighing a whopping 4 pounds! Last Thursday, they did surgery on her to re-connect her colostomy. On Sunday, she developed an infection, and on Monday her heart stopped beating, and she stopped breathing. They got her heart beating again, and she is now on a vent. The doctors say they think it was the infection that caused her heart to stop, but thus far, they have not been able able to determine the type of infection, although they know it's bacterial. She is on two different kinds of antibiotics, and today, 24 hours later, she is trying to breathe on her own, and they are trying to wean her off the vent. The doctors say the next 24 hours will be most critical. I would appreciate the prayers of all you prayer warriors for this precious little girl.
I have a picture of Sara Grace, but I am too technically challenged to know how to post it! Would one of you untechnically challenged freepers freepmail me so I can send you her picture to post? Thanks! :-)

I'm so sorry about Cheyenne. There are no words to say to the heartbroken except, "you will live through this; you are not alone...."

I haven't posted a Sara Grace update in almost a month!! It's time. I got this e-mail from her grandmother today, so please when you think about Sara Grace, say a prayer for her. She still has many needs!
THIS IS A NEW "MISS SARA GRACE" UPDATE. SHE NOW WEIGHS 6LBS, 11 OZ , AND IS 19 " LONG....AT LEAST. SHE IS LOOKING LONG AND THIN. HER ARM ISN'T AS LONG OR BIG AROUND AS DAVE'S FINGER! SHE IS SO SWEET! WE WENT TO THE EYE DOCTOR WHILE DAVE AND I VISITED ON THURSDAY. HE SAID HE ISN'T SURE WHAT WILL HAPPEN WITH HER EYES. THE RETINAS MAY DEVELOP SLOWLY AND NORMALLY, OR ABNORMALLY,( IN WHICH CASE HE WILL CUT THEM WITH A LASER AND SHE WILL NEVER HAVE ANY MORE SIGHT THEN SHE DOES AT THAT MOMENT ) OR THEY MAY DETATCH( SHE WOULD BE BLIND). THIS IS A WAIT -AND-SEE THING. SHE WILL GO EVERY 2 WEEKS. PLEASE CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR HER. SHE HAS BEEN THROUGH SO MUCH ALREADY. SHE DESERVES TO HAVE A NORMAL LIFE NOW. THANKS IN ADVANCE

Prayers continue...
Remember the Docs usaully give the worst case scenerio's so let's pray that this is not the case and her body will adapt and grow out of any possible disabilities so that she may not have any hurdles added to her life she is going to live.
Keep the faith and know what we cannot foresee is usaully more of an anxiety than the actual circumstance.
Let Go Let God.

Tuesday update on Sara Grace!! E-mail from her grandmother:
I just talked to ShaRae. Sara went to the doctor today. She weighs 7 lbs, 1 oz. I forgot to ask about length. She looks long and skinny! She will start on cereal next week. We are so glad! Hope it goes well for her. Maybe she'll be more satisfied now. When she's hungry, we all pay! Just wanted to share the news. Please remember to pray about her eyes. We'll just have to trust God that he will fix them in his time.
LOVE, MJ
