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!!!

"I learn so much from these little ones."

LOL!
Don't we all!

I'm so very happy for you that your son took that 25% chance and ran with it.
Logan was the same way - 20% chance of surviving.
God's odds are different than man's odds.

OKAY, LET'S WHOOP IT UP FOR LOGAN!!

I just heard from Nana!

Beth has just left the hospital where she held him for over an hour.
He is doing very good............while he's in mommy's arms.
When she put him down, he started letting the world know that he did not want back in his crib!

They're going to start him back on the bottle tomorrow.

He's doing very well, friends.

Thank you, God!

Thank you, freeper friends!

Thank you, caregivers!

YOU GO, LOGAN!
