PRAYERS PLEASE....

We just learned this week that our eight week old grandson, Bradley, will have heart surgery on August 24th at MUSC in Charleston, SC.  When he was born, we were told he had a slight heart murmur but that it would probably correct itself.  We were not too concerned since our other grandson had the same problem and after one month it was gone.  Bradley's did not go away so his pediatrician sent him to a cardiologist and he found a coarctation of the aorta which is basically a kinked aorta.  He will be admitted on Monday, the 23rd for pre-op testing and another ultrasound and then surgery early on the 24th.  He will be on a ventilator for 24 to 48 hours and if all goes well should be released in 5 to 7 days.  Please pray for this little guy.  I know God is in charge but a few extra prayers can't hurt.  I will try to post more details as we learn more.  Thanks!!  Chatty Kathy

Prayers for little Bradley! And for the rest of you.
Gos IS in control, but I know sometimes it's hard to shake the worry & fear with something like this. I can't even imgine what you all must be going through, but I truly believe everything will be alright.
Hugs to all of you!

I just offered prayers for little Bradley and your family. I have two grandkids and the younger one had a murmur that corrected itself, but there is such concern and fear, even where there is faith. I'm marking the date on my calendar and will be praying then too. Blessings...
