Prayer Request for Freeper's Son

Me | Today | Self

[kimmie7]

I just got the news that my precious son's (age 4) blood tests are back. He has Alpha 1 and the numbers on his liver enzymes are shooting up again.

His alkalines have almost doubles, as have ALT and AST. In short, it's not real good. Our wonderful doctor wants to check again in 3 months, but thinks we'll be headed back to Vandy for more aggressive treatment.

Please pray for his health & healing if it is God's will. Also, please pray for us as we cope. I will most certainly give God the glory and ya'll my heartfelt thanks.

Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency (AAT Deficiency or Alpha-1) is one of the most common serious hereditary disorders in the world and can result in life-threatening liver disease in children and adults or in lung disease in adults.

I'm going to have a bit of a cry now. He begged to go to Granny's for a few hours and I just couldn't say no.

I don't know if you've made easier or more painful now that there's a face to put with Jacob's name. But I do know that it makes it that much easier to pray for the dear little guy. I'll put him on my "permanent" list.

Lord God, please help little Jacob, and please give strength and peace to Kimmie and her family.

What a beautiful little boy! Tearful prayers going up!

I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth. Psalm 121:1-2

This Psalm always helps me and I hope it will comfort you, your precious son and your entire family.

[MEG33]

He is a beautiful boy!

Jesus's sweet will be done Kimmie. Prayers sent here also.

I also have a 4 y/o son and it breaks my heart to think what you must be feeling. I can only imagine the pain.

Prayers sent to the One and only that has the power (again if it is His will, not ours).

[OldFriend]

Freeper hugs on the way. And many prayers for your precious son.

[Texagirl4W]

He doesn't have a chance at getting you down!
You know he isn't worth the time of day, and we surround you with love, faith, and prayers.

Now. Bowling and pot holders - that sounds like an awesome way to while away the time as spring begins to unfold and we again experience the rebirth promised to us.

Blessings and prayers.

[kimmie7]

Thanks so much, everyone!

PTL -- (It occurs to me that your FRinitials stand for something wonderful as well - Praise the Lord!)
we have also laid hands on him at church, as well as an annointing with oil. Thanks to you and everyone else for standing united with us.

[Cindy]

Dear Lord,

Please bless this family and guide the doctors and nurses.
Miracles do happen.
We appreciate your bountiful blessings Lord.

Thank you Lord.

In Jesus' name.
Amen.

[kimmie7]

No modesty here on that one.

I think he's absolutely stunning.

Thanks ;-)
