My wife\u2019s coworker \u00a0just had a baby.\u00a0 They had tried for many years.\u00a0 The baby\u00a0 was born a few months ago.\u00a0 There is a problem.\u00a0 His legs have not developed well, and he goes back for tests to see the extent of the problem.\u00a0At least one doctor has suggested they may need to amputate both legs.\u00a0 No matter what he will be loved.\u00a0 But his mother and her husband, and all of us, pray that such a measure doesn\u2019t have to happen.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Father, hear our prayer for a miracle of healing for this child.\u00a0 Grant skill and compassion to his caregivers and peace, consolation, grace and strength to all who love him.\u00a0 We ask this through Christ our Lord.\u00a0 Mother Mary and St. Luke, pray for them!<\/p>\n
