Pray for Me...Pray for Others...

Pray for MeWe participate in "Pray for Me... Pray for Others" on the Riggs Family Blog. Check out their blog to add your prayer request. Join a community of friends who care about you, and hope you will care about them.


Pray for me....
As most of you already know, Jake will me having surgery tomorrow. He will be having his adenoids taken out and PE Tubes placed in his ears. This is a very minor procedure and very common for kids his age, but this is our kid and THEY WILL BE PUTTING HIM TO SLEEP! If any of you know Terry (and I think we all do), he has probably been a nervous wreck all day...and will probably be throughout the weekend. Don't get me wrong, I am also concerned, but I have a little more faith in the medical system than Terry does. Please pray for Terry's nerves tomorrow. A little prayer for the doctors and nurses might not be such a bad idea either.
Please also keep Little Jakey in your prayers. We are hoping this will help with his frequent sinus/respiratory infections and wheezing. There has hardly been a day since Thanksgiving that he has not had to have at least one breathing treatment. It was kinda cute at first, but now it's more sad that he knows exactly what to do with the mask for the nebulizer when he sees it. Most nights I don't even have to hold it for him. He holds it while I rock him and he goes on to sleep.

Pray for others...
I don't know this family, but a friend posted a link to their blog and it's such a sad story. They were pregnant with quads and lost "Baby A" a few weeks ago. On Monday, the other three were born but did not survive.
