Prayers for my new little man
« on: August 08, 2012, 03:04:00 PM »
Hello All.  My second son, Grayson, was born at the end of June and has been in the ICU ever since.  He had open heart surgery last Friday and seems to be recovering fairly well, albeit very slowly.  We're anxious to get him out of the hospital and home with us, so any prayers for a full and speedy recovery would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you all very much!  When I left his room this morning to go to work, his ventilator was turned down from yesterday, his oxygen saturation was perfect, his heart medicines were completely off, and they said they were going to start feeding him a tiny little bit to see if his stomach will tolerate it.  He still has a long way to go, but these are all positive signs and I'll take any form of progress any day.  Thank you!

WE've had a few similar to yours here amidst our Gang "family" before...

There is such amazing things they're doing with wee ones and heart rebuilding in infancy...long road sometimes, but many, many do very well and live very normal lives.

Be paitent. All things in God's own perfect timing, but I will add my voice to the chorus of prayers for your son to do well, sprint thru this and make his way into your family's loving arms soon!

Keep the Son in yoru eyes!

I wish I didn't have a reason to ask for more prayers for Grayson, but he just hasn't been doing well.  He's now had two open heart surgeries (the 2nd was on Wed.) and he just seems to keep getting worse.  They're going to try to drain some more fluid off his chest and stomach tonight, and if he doesn't bounce back after that they will put him on a machine that will do the heart and lung functions for him.  It's absolutely amazing how tough he is, but his poor little body can only take so much and he desperately needs to catch a break.

Chris,

Bud B's advice is the best and his prayer is echoed by us all.

For you personally, I worked for a while at Children's Hospital in Norfolk, VA...

I had to visit the NICU regularly to meet folks there... walking thru their watchin those tiny bodies hooked up to so many machines... one making their heart beat what looked like hundreds of times a minute... all the tubes, hoses, monitors...was the most terrifying thing I've ever seen!

And yet, many, many of those seemingly hopeless lil bodies grew strong and came thru and went home and developed into happy, healthy kids!

Our own Chip had much the same with his son having only half a heart I believe or it was hooked up backwards...and it took many surgeries before his boy came thru it...

Don't let HUMAN understanding undermine your faith or belief in the impossible when it comes to God and His children! Those tiny tots can take a lot more then we ever can...they just exist on Faith...without question.

Keep the Son in your eyes! Prayers continue!
