Timothy James

"Precious to God"


 

I was admitted to the hospital on Dec. 8th because my amniotic sac was leaking and I had begun to dilate. I was ordered to lie flat on my back until the baby came ( I was due April 2nd!). Well, on Dec. 17th my water broke at 7:15pm and Timothy James decided to come early. He was breech and already on his way out, so the doctor did an emergency C-section and at 10:20 pm he was delivered. He went straight to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and has been there ever since. Timothy was only 25 weeks along in his development (a "normal" pregnancy lasts 40 weeks) so he still has a lot of growing to do.

Psalm 116:1-2 "I love the Lord, because He hears my voice and my supplications. Because He has inclined His ear to me, therefore I shall call upon Him as long as I live."

Urgent Prayer Request: Timothy has contracted a cold. For most 2 year olds this would be no big deal, but as we all know, it can land him in the hospital. His oxygen requirement is up and he requires a lot of suctioning. Please join us in prayer that God would bring him through this illness at home and that the symptoms would subside soon and not turn into a secondary lung infection.
