At 10:00am this morning we were told that without kidney function, he would not make it another 24 hours. That is something that plays over and over in my mind...no matter what I do, it will not go away. We are still hoping and constantly praying that a miracle takes place in this room tonight.
We need him and he needs us.
We will keep praying for that miracle!

I continue my special prayers for Kennedy and especially for Drake right now. Hoping that this latest obstacle will just be a distant memory very soon and that you will all continue to be strong, very strong! Miracles do happen and God has been so good to you. I pray He will continue his blessings of perfect health soon for both your sweet children.

Praying that the Lord continues to rain His love, blessings, and grace down on your family!
ReplyDeletePraying for a miracle for you tonight. God is good and powerful. I was saying a prayer for Drake as I drove my daughter to dance class today. She is 5 yrs old. As I was praying, out of nowhere, she says from the backseat, "I blew him a kiss Mommy." "What? Who did you blow a kiss to, honey" I asked her. She replied, "To God." God is listening to the prayers of all who are praying for your sweet son. Continued prayers for God to heal Drake tonight.
ReplyDeleteI will pray that a miracle takes place tonight as well.

Annie and Brian,
ReplyDeleteWe are praying still for Drake, that God let's his little kidneys start functioning again, and that he starts getting rid of all this excess water out of his system right away, and continues this fight of his. God has Drake in his embrace right now, and is in control. We are praying for Kennedy to continue on her path as well as for you two to stay strong right now through the roughest time of your lives. You two are amazing parents!
