My post for today was
going to be about
painting
the rusty grate....
but something more
important has come up.
has been keeping me updated
about this family and
I have been kind of watching
in the background
but I really feel
called to ask for you
to pray.
has a child that is in
desperate need of prayer.
This is from her blog:
Been at the hospital all day, just home at 8:30. They took Jacob in about 9:30 this morning and brought him back around 3:00. they ended up having to put him on the ecmo machine, (heart lung by pass machine). Jacob was missing the whole left side of his diaphragm and everything was up in his chest cavity. his organs were blue meaning they were not getting enough oxygen. they had to create a piece for the part of the diaphragm that was missing. his lung on the left side is the size of a chicken nugget. He would not survive with out the ecmo machine. he has a 40 % chance now. just keep praying..
I'm sorry to keep asking for prayers.. but I have too. He needs them...
come on God.. please
I'm sorry to keep asking for prayers.. but I have too. He needs them...

My heart aches for this
family.

He had surgery yesterday.
He has a 40% chance of surviving...
but
HE HAS A CHANCE...
Maybe if we all send a prayer
up to God
He will hear our prayers.

Am saying a prayer for him now....so believe in the power of prayer. Thanks for sharing Diana.
Praying for him, Diana. I've visited like you asked. As we came close to losing both of ours, for completely different reasons, I can understand a little of what this family are going through. I was very saddened to learn you had lost a grandchild.
Oh yes, the power of prayer...miracles do happen.
Viv and I have gotten to be good friends over the last year. As soon as she shared her grandson's condition a few months ago, I've been praying. When our daughter went through multiple surgeries it was so helpful knowing that I had a circle of friends/family praying for her recovery.
Praying now, heading over to the blog.
I am praying for this precious baby, Diana.
Praying for a miracle.
Praying- miracles happen every day.
Bless his sweet soul. Doctors who treat sick babies are miracle workers and I'm thinking positive thoughts for jacob. :(
Prayers going out for sweet baby... xoxo Julie Marie

Hello Diana, will certainly pray and ask others to do as well. They can do some amazing things with these newborns now - my mom used to work in a NiCU for several years - there have been some miracles to occur. I appreciate you for sharing,

Oh my...there seems to be so much sadness in the bloggy world today. I've run into heart-breaking prayer requests on so many blogs I've visited. I will be more than glad to add my prayers to the others for this little one and his family. Thanks for sharing and asking.
So many heartfelt prayers headed Viv's way for Jacob.

I've been praying for him since Debby first mentioned the little guy. Someone so tiny shouldn't have to go through all this. I'll continue to pray for him.
I believe in miracles too. I will pray for that this little one survives to live a long, healthy life. My heart breaks for his mom...
I sure will pray for this baby and family, Diana. Bless you for spreading the word.

Oh sad..
Good thoughts and prayers going out now.
I cried so when I went to offer prayers to this family. I know a little about this heart ache - on a smaller scale. Please everyone pray this wee one and his family be surrounded by God and His Angels hold them all up.
Blessings,
Donna
Dear Lord,
Right now I pray.
Gracious Father
Give me wisdom to perceive thee
To understand what I ought to pray over this darling child.
To seek thee and wait.
Through your power of the Spirit Of
Jesus Christ My lord.
Our Father Who Art In Heaven.
Everything we ask is in your Will.
Thanks for the prayer request Nana.
