Please pray for Parker

I was reading another blog today and read about a family that really needs prayers. I know there are so many people who read our blog, so I was hoping that you could add baby Parker and his family to your prayer list. Our family has seen the power of prayer firsthand and has seen God work in mighty ways. We know he can heal little Parker. Please pray for his family. It sounds like his complications were as unexpected as Max's were. I know the fear, worry and uncertainty that his mom and dad are feeling. I have copied and pasted the info from the other blog so that you can read about him. There is a link at the bottom for a blog that will give updates on Parker.


October 3rd Update on Parker
I have seen through another family very recently the power of prayer and I ask that you keep this family in your prayers. My friend and my mom's fellow teacher, Angie, went into the hospital today to have her baby. It was a scheduled C-section, and Parker was born about 12:30 today. We went to see them tonight and when we got there they had just told them that he probably had down syndrome. They are obviously surprised and upset and I ask that you say a special prayer for them. Angie and Donald have a 3 year old daughter, Lauren. They are a sweet family and followers of Christ. They told us he may have to be taken to another hospital also. That is about all I know, but I will update more tomorrow. Please pass this info on to any other prayer warriors. Thanks.

October 4th Update on Parker
Parker was sent to see a specialist about two hours away. The doctors now have said that Parker's problems go way beyond downs. They think he might have had a stroke and had some siezures even in the womb. He is also partly brain dead. This is much more worse than the doctors originally thought. My mom was going up to see Angie after school. Donald is in Macon with Parker. Parker will be in the hospital for at least two more weeks. Please, Please keep praying for this family. I know this has to be a rough time for them. I will update when I find out more. Please pass this on if you will.

2nd October 4th Parker Update
They thought he had down syndrome but now they have found much more. He is partly brain dead and deaf. He can't eat through a tube anymore and is on oxygen. They took him this morning to a hospital about two hours away and his daddy, Donald is with him. Angie is going tomorrow, Lord willing to be with them. She has been sick with worry and has not been able to eat much and keep it down. They have a 2 year old, Lauren. Please keep this family in your prayers. I will update my blog when I find out new info. if you want to check that. Pass this info on.
