My friend, Jill, had her little boy on July 4th! Unfortunately, he was born at just 26 weeks. It seems as though he was quite the bruiser. He was 14 inches long and over 2 lbs. Still, little guys like this struggle so much with lung development, possible brain bleeds, holes in their hearts, and a whole host of other things. At just over a week old, Logan appears to be out of the woods for brain bleeds and the hole that was initially seen in his heart valve. He's a tough little guy and they're starting to wean him from his ventilator and decrease the settings.
This has been an incredibly scary experience for Jill, her husband, Danny and the rest of their families. Logan is in the NICU in Springfield and they expect he will remain there for at least another 8 weeks. So far there have been many answers to prayer and we know that will continue to be the case. Please pray for little Logan and the peace of his family as they deal with the ups and downs of this difficult time.

I just came across your blog and read this post about your friend's son. My son was born 10 weeks early 3 years ago, spent 12 days on the vent. and was in the NICU for 6 weeks. Tell your friend she can email me if she wants. markandsusie96@sbcglobal.net
It would really have helped me to talk to those who had been there done that, and it might help her too. Love your blog, too!
