Prayer Request for A Tiny Baby (Update in post #12850)
Myself | 8-11-03 | Brad's Gramma

Posted on 08/11/2003 12:57:30 PM PDT by Brad’s Gramma

If you will, please remember this tiny baby in your prayers. He’s the grandson of a very dear friend of mine. Logan was born on July 25. His due date was in October, making his mommy 26 weeks along, being born 3 months and 3 days early.

Logan was 1 lb 9.4 oz when he was born and is now weighing, as of this morning, 1 lb. 8.3 oz. The little guy is now 12-1/2” long.

He’s a real trooper and is fighting with all his little body can fight with. His Grandma said that he’s starting to recognize his mommy when she comes in the room and hears her voice. She said he tries so hard to open his eyes, and starts kicking his feet.

I asked my friend if there were any specific prayers, other than the obvious…and this is her reply…” A prayer of thanks for the miracle called "Logan.”

On a personal note, I’ve read the emails daily from my friend. I’ve known her for years, I’ve heard her talking about her family for years…but I’ve got to tell you that I’m SO impressed with how her children have all banded together in support. What an incredibly wonderful and loving family.

Father God, we lift up Logan’s little body to you. We pray that you can strengthen him hourly, daily, weekly, until he’s grown enough to go home with his precious family. We ask for guidance for the doctors and nurses who are caring for him. We ask for strength for his parents and extended family. Thank you so much for the gift of life. In Jesus’ Name, Amen

Fellow Freepers…….I bring you Logan!!!

LOL... tough as nails is right! Let’s pray that she stays that way. I’m amazed that she has a hint of hair being as early as she was. Of course, God’s miracles never cease to amaze me! I love her perfect little fingers. They are long just like Sams. She’s special indeed :)

I’m not a physician but...that baby looks really good. Her color is really healthy looking and knows her mommy is there. Continued prayers for this sweet baby. God bless her and all her family. Thank you for the update. Wow.

Hey y'all....I just received this email from Logan's Nana.

PLEASE post to the Prayer Warriors that baby Layla needs prayers. She's having a rough time right now. One thing is the PDA valve in her little heart didn't close and the medicine didn't work. Last report I got was that they were going to do bedside surgery Fri. morning (if they can do it at that time ... she has to stabilize a little more). Looks like the roller coaster ride is beginning. I'm not sure what else is going on. All I got in the message was she's not doing well and prayers are needed. Oh how we pray that she does as well as Logan did.

All prayers and well wishes appreciated......

OK, Folks....let's pray this Tiny Baby through it, too...PLEASE...thank you all. Dee

We went through this with Logan and have seen it with other little ones... just how fragile they are... and that they are truly in the hands of God and those who treat them. It is so scary...this tiny infant fighting for life.

Through tears, we thank you all....
Nana

Fervent prayers to our Heavenly Father through Christ our Lord from our house.

May every prayer be heard on behalf of this sweet baby, her family, and those tending her health. God bless and surround them within His loving, merciful, providential care and guidance and grant every need for her good health and well being.

Keeping them close in prayer.

Here we go again......From Nana:

Sam just posted a note and I'm quoting, " We need all the prayers we can get right now. Layla is having a terrible day and she'll be going in for heart surgery Thursday".
