Prayers Requested

My friends Jason and Val and their newborn baby need your prayers. Their first child, Tyler, was born three months prematurely. Since his birth, he has had heart surgery, subsequent complications with his lungs, and several infections.

Here’s what Jason and Val had to say:

“With so many “miracles” that you read or hear about, we sure would like to witness one for ourselves. The doctors gave us a bleak prognosis today for Tyler. Basically he has not improved as they would like so they are not sure what else can be done for him. The combination of his heart and lung problems are proving to be too complicated for medical science to solve. A neurologist will be evaluating him and we will discuss with all the doctors next week what the outlook is and what our options are.”

I am a strong believer in prayer. When I have asked God for specific things (although I very rarely do it), He comes through. I’m putting a picture of cutie Tyler here. If you can please keep him in your thoughts and prayers.
