Thanks for all the prayers and keep them coming. Here is his latest update.

quote:

We have the very best news to share for all who have been praying for our great grandson, Samuel. Sunday, he was moved from the Neonatal ICU unit at UMC Medical Center to a different ICU unit in the Sanderson wing of the Batson Pediatric Hospital section of University Hospital. What this means is he has improved to the point where he is in a private room, where His parents can be with him at all times. He was moved because of all of the improvements so many of you have faithfully prayed for God to provide. In absolute response to your prayers, God has brought Samuel to this point, and for your prayers, we will be forever grateful. We had been told he would not likely leave the hospital until sometime around December, but that. That important partial required step that will allow his eventual release has now happened.

God is good and his grace is more than sufficient. He hears the prayers of His people. If you needed assurance that he hears your prayers, Samuel is that proof and we thank you for your efforts on Samuel's part. However, I still want to remind you about several other things. He is still in an intensive care unit, just not the most serious one at UMC. The other thing is there are many other little preemie babies still in the neonatal ICU unit, and in lots of other hospitals around the world. In addition to Samuel, we need to pray for all of the other infants, but also for all of those with sickness and all sorts of other problems, both children and older, including old folks. Jesus said we need to pray for each other and we should take him seriously.

God Bless all of you.

I'm happy to hear good news about baby Samuel. It is a long road, but every step forward is the most important step he's taken in his young life. Here's to hopes and prayers that he continues progressing.

Samuel's gonna grow up to be a cool dude with a family that will always thank God for his miracle of life. He'll also be a Dawg and a great cook.
