Prayer Request

Still grinding away, but a reader writes:

Please pray for my cousin, Amanda, and her unborn son, Parker. Amanda is 23.5 weeks pregnant. An ultrasound revealed she has a softball size tumor in her uterus that was NOT present 4 weeks ago at a different ultrasound. Her doctors have advised her she has a 60% chance of miscarriage and they recommend she abort this baby. I spoke with my aunt, her mother, and they have gone from calling him “Parker” when they found out he was a boy at the last ultrasound to calling him “it”. He has become an “it” to them, an “it” that is preventing them from biopsying this tumor. They are not agnostic at best. I have been praying since I found out today that Parker gets the chance to live. She will be making a decision regarding this on Monday. My aunt said, “Maybe this is God’s way of telling her to take care of herself and not others.” I dropped the phone. Please, please, pray for this little boy’s life and his mother’s heart. Pray that his mother puts his life as top priority.

Father, hear our prayer for Parker’s safe delivery and for the health of his mother through Christ our Lord. Mother Mary, pray for this child and all involved.
