Prayers

Hello Ladies,

I wanted to please ask for prayers for our little miracle baby.  On sept 17 I was admitted to the hospital with HELLP syndrome. It was so far progressed that I had to have steroid shots to build up my sons lungs as well as my platelets that had dropped extremely low. I was told that I would not make it through the week pregnant. They had to save me and my son so on sept 19 my baby was born at just 2lbs 12 oz.  he is a fighter. Still on a vent because he just doesn't have enough strength to breath completely unassisted because he gets tired but they started feeding him my milk yesterday which is a huge step forward.  Leaving him was the hardest thing I've ever had to do but I know he is in good hands. The hospital is 1.5 hours away and I can't drive yet because I have to recover but my husband and I are making it at least every other day now.  It's so hard not being able to hold him yet and it could be a couple more weeks before we can!  Please just pray for his strength, growth, and healing!  Thank you in advance!
