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!!!

Prayers for this precious baby.

That picture brings back memories of my preemie,
who is now a healthy 18-year-old!

Oh please God...guide the hands of the surgeons and bring this baby back to us so that she may grow and prosper in your name. Fight Baby Layla like you have never fought before. Fight for your right to live so that you can bring joy to your family and praise to God. We’re all pulling for you Layla and so is Logan. You can get your strength from him who also fought day and night. We will pray for you sweet baby girl...go into surgery and come out so that you can heal,go home, grow and live the life you were meant to live. God’s blessings on everyone involved in the care of this little one. Please God...help Layla. Amen.

Prayers up for the Layla Ann!

And a quote from “Horton Hears a Who”, a Dr. Seuss Book, later made into a Broadway Musical:

“A Person’s a Person, No matter how SMALL!”
