Kyle's NICU Story in Pictures

From Home - Shauna

Kelly and John headed to the hospital with specific prayer needs-

Please pray for the meds the doctor is giving kyle for PDA - this hole needs to close and he can only be on these meds for another day. If his kidney's don't work just right, they will take him off the meds- so pray for his little kidneys to work with perfect precision!

They need his oxygen levels to go down- he is at 32% percent - so pray for that number to decrease rapidly- Pray that God would breathe his life giving breath into kyle's lungs... and that they would mature rapidly-

We really need these medicines to work- his kidneys and lungs to mature and function as they should-

pray fervently.

it is really easy to read an email, glance at a blog, or watch 30 seconds of a news special where people are hurting- in need of prayer- and then go about your day. please don't do that today. pray for baby kyle.

if you have been praying- THANK YOU... please continue- if you have been giving... THANK YOU... my request is that you REMEMBER. all the time, every second... this is real, and a part of our lives forever, it is going to be a long battle... please stick it out... continue to pray, to give, and to remember.

here are some pictures from home... and pictures from yesterday at the hospital.

Although I've never met John or Kelly, I want you to know that the images of their precious baby boy, Kyle, have been constantly on my mind today... Prayers are being said.

Kyle has been on my mind so much and I'm praying. It will be a long battle, but there are lots of people in it for the long haul.

Our Story

This story begins with 5 people. John, Kelly, Jadon, Jack, and Kyle (he is only 23 weeks old... and he is still safely tucked away in his mommy's belly) In an hour's time Kyle made his way into the world. 1 pound, 3 ounces- 11 and a half inches long. This family will never be the same. This child is a warrior. He has the spirit of a Lion, and more courage than a whole pride. He is fierce, and fearless- and he is teaching us to fear the Lord- and to believe that God is in our midst and healing even now. Join us as pray, as we praise, and as we journey through this life as lovers of God and all His glory.

Kyle is in the March of Dimes Promo!
