Prayers Are needed for Braedon Hembree and his family. Everyone with a mailing list, please forward. I do not really know how to start a prayer chain, but we need a miracle. Braedon is just a 20-month-old baby boy in Clinton, S.C. A few weeks ago his parents took him to a hospital with double pneumonia. He is in a "coma-like" state and on a respirator battling viral pneumonia. Braedon is only 20 months old and very weak. He is recognizing voices, as his heart rate goes up when they sing/talk to him, it especially got stronger when his big sister, Krista, talked with him. The doctors are perplexed by the type of viral pneumonia he is fighting. Braedon has taken a turn for the worse. His blood pressure is extremely high, leading the doctors to think he is having seizures or strokes. He is still on life support. The family appreciates your prayers and they continue to have lots of hope for improvement. I am told the family's faith is such that they are expecting a miracle soon. Be a part of that miracle. The power of prayer is great. I ask for your prayers on their behalf. Please pray for Braedon's healing and for strength and comfort for his family. I am asking you to send this letter, or copies of it, to everybody you can think of who will pray for Braedon. Please also take his name to your church and church groups and ask others to pray for his healing. Many thanks and may God bless each one of you who cares enough to pray for a little boy's life. Please take time to do this right now. God bless you.
