I have a prayer request, sorry for having pinged so many of you. I was talking to a friend tonight, whose brother & wife just gave birth to their first baby last Friday. The baby was delivered c-section due to complications. She's only 1-1/2 pounds and 13" long. Mom could only touch her once, due to the delicacy of her skin (because she's so small). She was 6 months along when the delivery took place. Anyway, please, pray for her continued growth.
There's also a chance that, due to the early birth, she may have cereberal palsy (sp). The little one's name is Madeline. Thanks to all of you. I told the proud aunt (my friend) I'd put out a prayer request on the net...
Sick, sick, sick, sick, sick, sick, sick, sick, sick, sick, sick, sick, sick, sick, sick.
There may be sicker things, but I can't think of any right now.
Shalom.
p.s. I'll be praying.
To encourage you, good friends of ours had a baby weighing in at 1lb 3oz. He's not 11-1/2 years old and extremely bright and athletic. He does wear corrective lenses that are quite thick...but other than that he escaped the more serious premature difficulties.
Thanks for the heads up, David. I think we should all let the ACLU know that we're praying for their souls....really. It may work while none of the outrage, facts or common sense has.
