Today is a day that I knew was coming but almost felt like it would never come. We are going to the hospital this morning, my wife Erin has a C-section scheduled for 12:30pm at Baylor All Saints Downtown Fort Worth. We get to welcome our son Graham into our arms.
I want to thank each of you that have been so faithful with your prayers during all that has happened over the past few months. God has sustained both the body of my son and the hearts of my wife and me. I know that he will continue to be faithful, never leaving us for even one second.
I would lift a couple of prayer requests to you this morning:
1. First that the surgery would go smoothly for my wife and son, that there would be no complications from the actual procedure.
2. That Graham’s lungs would be able to breathe on their own once his umbilical cord is cut. Or at the very least he has some progress of lung development that would be increased through the aid of a breathing machine.
3. That Erin would be discharged as a patient as quickly as possible so that she can see Graham in the N-ICU. This especially becomes important if they transfer him to Cooks Children’s Hospital and Erin has to stay at Baylor.
4. That no matter what happens this morning, we would have the strength to give God the true worship he deserves.
We have great faith in our doctors and the people caring for our family. But they can’t save Graham. If healing comes, it will be from God alone.
To Him be the praise, Blessed be the Name of the Lord.
