Please pray

Yesterday, November 29th, my great-nephew, Elijah James Nance was born. His mother is diabetic and he was early and had low blood sugars. Later in the day they put Elijah in intensive care because he has a blockage. They were able to find the cause, and today they are operating. Below is an email from my sister, Elijah's grandma..Thanks for praying!!

"Hello all,
Thanks for your prayer support!!!

Elijah will be having surgery today some time this afternoon. He has a deformity of his trachea and esophogus. His esophogus is not attached to his stomach. His trachea has an extra turn or something so that things tend to back up into his lungs.

He has an IV that is feeding him. Nathan and Tara seem to be doing pretty well. They have been able to hold him and spend time with him, even with the various wires and such. Elijah seems to be peaceful and doing well, considering.

Lenard will be flying down from Ketchikan to here on Sunday evening.

Again, thanks so much for your prayers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TTFN
Love Debbie"

PS..Debbie called around 9:45 Friday night..the surgery went well..Tara, Elijah's Mom will be released tomorrow and Elijah will be in the hospital 1-2 weeks...
