Please pray for my nephew's 2 month old son. His mother was rocking him in a rocker on their porch when the rocker broke and they fell backwards. Some how he hit his head and fractured a bone beside his eye. They said that the left side of his face is swollen and the doctors are sending him to Shands hospital in Gainesville for observation. They aren't sure if they will need to do surgery or not.
Please pray for this family for their salvation and the baby's health. Pray that the Lord will use this for his will and that the Lords will be done.

GOD BLESS

The doctors have decided they need to do surgery to relieve the swelling and repair the fractured bone. They are going to do the surgery today. Please keep praying for this young baby and his family.

The baby was operated on this afternoon of 9-4-07 and came through very good. The doctors removed several bone splinters and a piece of bone. The doctors said that the bone would grow back.

Praise God the baby will be just fine. The surgery that the doctors did took less than 1/2 the time the said was a minimum time, the swelling he has is 1/2 of what the doctors said it would be, and they told the parents that they could bring the baby home today if they wanted to. Yesterday they said it would be mabey Friday when they could bring him home. His Parents have decided they wish to stay another day so that they can get some rest before making the 5 hour drive home.

Thank you all for your prayers and continued prayers for this baby and his family.

Please pray for a young Christian couple that I met while at the hospital. She has spinal bifida (spelling?) and was told that she could never get pregnant but the Lord has blessed them and she is 8 months pregnant. She is having a lot of complications and all the doctors can tell her is their best guess. They told them that they will probably have to take the baby this week.

This young couple has a lot of faith in the Lord and Know that the baby will be born healthy and everything will be as the Lord desires. Please keep them in your prayers.

GOD BLESS
