Prayer Request for Freeper's Son
Me | Today | Self

Posted on 01/26/2004 12:05:16 PM PST by 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 wish your son a quick and full recovery. I am sorry to hear he is ill. I'm not very familiar with the particular problem he has. Take care. Your family will be in our thoughts.

Merciful Lord, we pray that You will protect and keep Kimmie's son safe from harm. Guide the doctors to find the cure so he may be restored to the perfect health, which it is Yours alone to give.

Thanks for the prayer ping, RG.

Kimmie 7, my prayers go forth for your precious son and for your family.

Prayers also for the research to go forth in a godly manner for these genetic diseases to be better understood, and cured.

Daer Kimmie7:

FReeper prayers are powerful, I know this firsthand.

May the Lord raise your precious little one up, hold him in His healing embrace, and restore him. May the Lord hold all of you close and bring you comfort. May the Lord shower all of you with blessings, health, and joy.

In Jesus' name.
