Default Re: Prayer request for Darkman's son

Thanks for your thoughts and prayers.

Buddy was playing with a swing he had built using a piece of a limb as a seat to the swing. The limb had broke and he apparently tied the two ends together and looped it under his arms and around his chest. He had climbed up on a wood rack and we believe he thought he could swing like Super man flus but when he came off the wood rack his weight of his lower body pulled him down and it tightened around his chest. The more he fought to get loose the more it tightened until he could not take a breath. This was a tragic accident and I found him within minutes of him loosing consciousness but we cannot be sure of the timeline entirely. I had seen him playing less than thirty minutes earlier. I thank God I found him in time to save him but we just do not know to what stage his brain was damaged. He looks like a perfect little boy resting in the hospital. The doctors gave him a paralytic since he was having total body muscle spasms which was interfering with the ventilator. Late tomorrow they will start weaning him off the meds and we will know more about his brain functions. Buddy needs your prayers. My wife and I need your prayers. Buddy is our grandson but we have raised him since he came home from the hospital after birth. This is the Monday morning report

Buddy rested peacefully through the night. The medication is giving him an opportunity to heal. It is all up to God at this point as he is the only one that can heal Buddy's brain. Everyone needs to pray for God's healing touch on Buddy.

The doctors will start weaning him off the medication late Tuesday to see how he will respond. We especially need your prayers then. The doctors do not have medicine that repairs the brain but God can. Let him hear your prayers. We do not know what God's will is but we can request that he heal Buddy and allow him to stay with us. God gave us Buddy to raise and we need to finish.

Please continue to pray hourly for God's healing powers.

Charles and Tami
