But, as I laid there on the bed holding him,

the Lord gave me such a blessing it almost brought tears to my eyes.

Oh dear ones!! :hug: More prayers continue.
I am saying some prayers for that beautiful boy and for your family. And that snuggling is a VERY special gift.
Kim definitely still praying...and isn't that wonderful that in amongst it all there was that special time with you and Natty in the ER (which would have to be one of the most unrelaxing places in the world!!)
Take care my friend!
Anna
I pray for complete and urgent healing for Natty.
I also pray that your family will have great and peaceful rest tonight.
Thank-you each one of you, for you prayers & your comments, reminding me that you ARE praying!
I really appreciate it!
