A baby was born last week... he may not live to see his mother....
A child was born last week to a young couple living in our area. They have an older son who is now 3 years old. This couple's baby is having life threatening complications. Because of a hereditary problem, and complications, the doctors have said that this baby has a 20% chance of living. That chance being encompassed by living with down syndrom. This baby is fighting against the 80% working against his life, his parents, and brother, and god-father, are all in need of prayer and support. This is an extremely sorrowful situation. He was moved to Orlando where he is in ICU. His mother is unable to move and is in the hospital here in Daytona.
I cannot imagine what it is like to have a child taken from me with health conditions, and then have the idea that I may never be able to hold him again, and that it seems like everything is working against me and my baby. The strength that this mother needs right now, the support her husband but give, and the pillar of strength they are leaning on,being the god-father, all need love support and loads of prayer.
Now I challenge you, this is a child, a baby, fighting for his own life, that may never be as 'normal' as ours, but he has a chance. I ask you to pray, for this baby's life, for God's miraculous hand can heal him and comfort this family. The baby's name is Payton Michael, named after his god-father. I do not know this family directly, I am close friends with the god-father though. And right now prayer is the only way I know how to help.... if there is anything more, please let me know...
My friends problems are my problems. My heart goes out <3
