Prayers needed

[siamcat]

I just wanted to ask people to say an extra prayer for my brothers baby. He, Rolf, was born via c-section last night because of fetal distress. He's holding his own right now, but is going to need surgery on Monday.
The doctors are optimistic that if he survives the surgery ( on his bowels, they can't tell the problem until they operate) he's going to be fine.
Thank you.

Thank you all. It is very much appreciated. He still doing ok. :rose

They ran some more tests and decided it was an obstructed bowel. Surgery has been moved to Tuesday, but he's perking up and when awake quite alert. Thank you again. I attached a pic ( the one with the tubes hidden).

He is beautiful; my prayers are with him and his family.

[Deb]

He's a cutie. Hope he continues to improve and get well!

[siamcat]

Thank you. For 7 weeks early he's a scrapper. Tomorrow I should know how the surgery went.

[siamcat]

The surgery went well and barring any unforseen complications he should recover fully. :-)

That is great news.

[Deb]

Great news! I hope he continues to improve, and can be released from the hospital as soon as he's strong enough.

[siamcat]

Thank You :-)

[MikePearce]

That is wonderful news! I will continue to pray for him, his doctors, and his parents!

I just now found this thread, Cat. He will be in our thoughts and prayers.

Any update on the little munchkin?

[siamcat]

My mom called today. Rolf is out of ICU and he gained 100 grams. Tomorrow they start him on a baby tea and if he can take that for a few days they'll try nursing him.
Thanks again, it's looking good.:thumbsup
