Prayer for Wyatt

Update as of 3/2/09

I received some wonderful news today and wanted to share it with all of you who are praying for Wyatt... The family received the reports from the tests that have been run, and Wyatt's tumor was downgraded from a grade two to a grade one, which is considered benign!! What a huge praise this is! What a wonderful answer to prayer! He has what is called juvenille pilocytic astrocytomoa, and he will continue to have MRIs every 6 months to watch it.

However, they still need our prayers.... as a result of his intubation (they think) he has a paralyzed vocal cord and he did not pass a swallowing test, therefore he had to have a feeding tube put in his stomach. Please pray for the function of his vocal cord to return fully and that the muscles and nerves that control his swallow would also return to normal function. He is still in the hospital but they are now in a private room.

We know our God is the Great Physician and is able to touch and heal, look what He has already done for this precious little one, please continue to join me in prayer for Wyatt and his family. Thank you so very much!

Praying still...



Below is the initial prayer request from February 22, 2009

Hey Everyone
I would like to ask you to pray for a 4 year old little boy named Wyatt.

He has been diagnosed with brain cancer... they do not yet have a course of treatment planned out, they are in the process of figuring all that out.

Also remember his parents, Kelly and Jim... They have one other child and Kelly is pregnant with their 3rd due in May.

Jim had been out of town and Wyatt was in the bed with his mom and had a seizure. The seizure led to the discovery of cancer...

Please join me in lifting this family to the throne of grace and praying for a touch of God upon this precious little one's body, for divine appointments for them, and for every need to be met. Thank you so much! I will post updates as I get them...

Praying...
