Prayers are Needed



This is a picture of my friend Kathy and her granddaughter, Lucy.... Lucy was born on August 25th and tonight she was rushed to the children's hospital in Edmonton, she is in ICU and fighting for her life. This is Kathy's first grandchild and her family are filled with worry and exhaustion. The doctors are unsure what exactly is wrong but they are trying to stabilize her as they are doing test. Please remember little Lucy, my dear friend Kathy and her family in your prayers....Thank you

I'm praying right now for God to Build a wall of His Loving Protection around Lucy and her family.
Let's put her in God's Hands for there is no better place to be.
I'm praying for you too, Bernie.
Love and Prayers,
Eileen

My prayers are silent, they can't be heard except by God. But rest assured, they're there.

I am SO sorry to hear about little Lucy. I pray the doctors will have wisdom in finding out what is wrong and being able to help her. Ultimately, God is the great physician, and as Eileen said, Lucy is in His hands right now. Donna

This family is right at the top of the list today. There is nothing more scary than a sick child. What a dear friend you are to be there with her. Blessings

Oh, Bernie!
This is very sad news.
I most defintely shall keep all of them in my prayers.

And would you say a little prayer for my sweet dog Jake as I'm taking him to the vet in about 15 mins...he was very sick last night and I do know what is wrong.
Thank you.

HUGS

Oh Bernie...I just pulled this up. I'm going to leave this short comment...and immediately go to my quiet place and pray...and pray. I am heartbroken...and will ask God to miraculously intervene right now. Thank you for your prayer request....Thank you for being a loving friend.

Bernie said...

Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers...Kathy has just called and baby Lucy is holding her own this morning and the family are meeting with doctor's at noon today.
Kathy will call when she can, I will keep you updated....let's keep praying okay.

Gail the only reason I was there was that Kathy was visiting me and we were having a cup of tea when her daughter called, she was to upset to drive so I drove her in and her husband drove me home early this morning.

Love you all and again I thank you for your prayers and I know how much the family appreciate them.....:-) Hugs

Sending Baby Lucy all positive healing thoughts. Our Grandson, Caden, was born 9 weeks early - a baby in the NICU is a very frightening ordeal.

Blessings each day said...

I sent up some prayers before I left to do a favor for a neighbor this morning and before I even visited the blogs... when I saw your prayer request title.

May the Good Lord hold Lucy in His healing Hands.

blessings, prayers and hugs,

I am praying for Lucy and her family, Bernie. Such a sweet, young life to be in distress, but I know she's in God's hands. I pray her parents have the faith of a mustard seed, and will seek His face for peace, wisdom, and comfort.

Thank you for your words on my post about 9/11. We did come together...I pray we stay together in strength and courage to fight the enemies without and within. God bless you, Bernie!

I am behind reading your blog, so late prayers are on the way from me and I will quickly read your next post(s) for an update.
My youngest daughter just told us she is expecting in the spring, so I can so relate to this grandmother's anxiety.

Bernie said...

Congratulations on expecting the newest grandchild...so happy for all of you. Thank you for your prayers, late or not Joan all are very much appreciated.....Hugs
