Prayer Warriors have seen this but we need everyone to offer prayers for Richie.
First a little history .... The last week of November, Richie received several vaccines which included the flu vaccine.
On December 2nd, he was hospitalized with paralysis of his arms and legs. He was put on a respirator and the outlook was bleak. I posted a note on FB asking for prayers from family and friends.
Richie is the grandson of a cousin who is more like a little brother than a cousin.
Prayers up for Richie.
Praying with you.
Beautiful smile!
Thank you for the update. Good to see him smile.
Thank you for the update.
Prayers up.
Praying.
Awww.....love seeing that sweet boy and his smile. Thanks for the pics.
Prayers continuing for Richie....for complete healing.
In Jesus’ Holy name.
We are all praying for Richie and a miracle. Let’s keep faith. Gentle hugs, sweet baby.
I understand.
It was several days that I heard nothing. Grandpa was so happy when he was finally able to send me a great picture.
Amen
Prayers continue for this courageous and very special little boy and his family and all concerned.
Thank you, Amy.
Prayers every night for this dear little guy— and his family.
As soon as I see a new post, I click on immediately, hoping for good news. Step by step it goes. Do they have an exact diagnosis?
Thanks so much for the ping, Amy. Sweet photos. I am praying for this little one and his family.
We continue to pray for Richie, having FAITH that we are heard. Bless Richie and his family with Your Grace and Love. Please walk with them and carry them when needed.
Thank You.
We pray in Jesus' Name.
Amen.
JustAmy, thank you.
They are saying that a virus attacked his spinal cord.
Originally they thought it was the flu vaccine.
Prayers still needed...but a smiley update.

Still praying....
The following song doesn't match Richie's case exactly, of course, but it seemed to be an appropriate kind of thought (in a sense) for all of us to keep in mind, as we join you in our prayers for an Easter miracle for the little gentleman.

(youtube song link) (Lyrics) He is the fountain for a thirsty soul He is the healer and so much more When my heart is broken by this world's demands The pieces are mended through one scarred hand Chorus And when I can't stand, I have to lean And when I can't see, I must believe The Great Physician's touch is a balm that can Mend broken hearts with one scarred hand It's a hand that holds this whole world in place It's a hand that was scarred just to give me grace And to think a hand that holds the stars Is small enough to mend one broken heart Chorus The Great Physician's touch is a balm that can Mend broken hearts with one scarred hand |
Beautiful smile. May God keep him safe and bring him healing.
