Please Pray for my Son.

I am not a huge religious person, but right now, I am asking for prayers, good thoughts, anything at this point. My son has been sick for the past two days, so we went to the doctors today, and because he was born at 32 weeks, and is only 7 weeks old, he sent us to the emergency room, after being there for 9 hours, and not able to find why he is so sick they ended up admitting him for at least the next 24-36 hours. He has been running fevers, getting sick, having horrible leg pains, and possible seizures. Tonight they did a LP (lumbar puncture) and started him on Anti-botics. I am beyond scared and worried for my little man. I went back to work yesterday and I am kicking myself in the ass for doing so. Please keep him in your thoughts. I had to come home tonight as there was only room for one person to sleep, and I needed to take my medicine as I have a lot of health issues going on, so his daddy is there with him, and I'll be going back first thing in the morning, I hate that I am not there, but my family said I need to also take care of myself, and that is what I am trying to do, but at the same time its just so hard, so Please right now, I am begging for prayers, wishes, positive thoughts, anything. Thank you.

all the positive vibes to you and your son. i hope your son will be on the mend soon, and i know it's hard to think of yourself at a time like this, but your family is right, you need to take care of yourself as well.

again, i hope everything will be ok.

Lord God,

I praise you for your compassion and your goodness.

Marvelous are your healing mercies.

Lord, as sickness has invaded this little one's world, We stand by watching and feeling helpless. But Lord, we are reminded that we are not helpless but powerful in prayer.

We lift up to you this precious child, and we ask for your healing power to fully permeate every part of this child's body.

Lord, I ask that this child's body be quickly transformed into radiant health as you respond to prayer and your healing promises in your Word.

In Jesus’ name we pray,

Amen

So the blood cultures came back fine, wont have the urine or spinal tap culture till sometime tomorrow, he is off IB fluids, and has not had a fever all night or today. They have an egg on his head to monitor for seizures. They do have an xbox and dvd player so we did bring harry potter movies and our flash drive with videos, but we are going to be here for a few days.

     I was recently separated from my wife of 33 years and it's complicated. Anyway I rented a room about 15 minutes away and I see my kids about once a week. I see the people who own the house I live in once in a while but other than that I stay in my room where I do my cooking, wash dishes in the shower, read, color, and sleep. I get out at least once a day. I grocery shop and I attend 2 meetings...
