I am asking for prayer for my 8 year old grandson,TY. He had surgery twice this week and will have surgery again Saturday, making his 3rd this week. He contracted staph infection around the ankle joint and now is in the leg bone.He will be 9, Sat the 8th ,is his b-day. Please pray for his recovery, he is in so much pain. They do give him something for pain but when he is awake, he still suffers.Pray for our family, my daughter(his mom) is a wreck, it is hard for us to see any child like this.She is worn out from attending him and has only left him 1 night in a week, his dad stayed. I know this is probally not where you post this, but I am hoping to reach more Cuties this way._Toogie

UPDATE ON TY- The surgery last night, along with the petitions to our Lord, has helped Ty today. He slept for the 1st night in 8 days, all night. the dr said what they gave him after surgery would make him rest for 6-8 hrs, but he went without pain meds for 15 hrs! They reopened the incision at his ankle,made an additional incision behind the leg,down close to the ankle and drilled a small hole in his bone. They left this open, for it to drain, after they cleaned and washed it out. In the morning, which will be Sat the 8th, his 9th b-day,they will take Ty back to surgery,flush the open sites out again. If the blood work shows the infection is responding to treatment, they will close the wounds, if not,the dr said Monday they would take him back into surgery to flush it out again. The Dr said the most he has had to do a patient is 6 times! Can you even imagine?!! I am hoping and praying the white count has come down b/4 surgery so he won't have to have a 4th surgery Monday. He also ate better today. I am so thankful for the blessings we recieved, for my Cutie Prayer Warriors response to my cry, for the love I feel from all of you, for the love & care you have shown to one of God's little children and his family, for our Lord in heaven who hears and answers our prayer.Bless all of you, In sisterly love-Toogie

ok i will pray for the family hugs to all carolyn

Seems staph is rampant these days and even though we have it in our bodies at all time if in the wrong place it can be deadly. Ty is in my prayers that soon he will be well. I do so hate to see children unwell./Lillian

Good thoughts coming his way, it is harder when it is a child. I hope this is gone soon. Post where you need to!

Toogie -
I am really sorry to hear about young Ty!! You and your family must be so worried about him. Know that my thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this difficult time. May God continue to hold all of you in the palm of His hand!

It is very hard ro see a child suffering, and you do not have the power to do anything, may his guardian angel and God be with him all the time and Our Lord to guide the Doctor's hands during the surgery. May God give confort to all of you.

Oh, Toogie I was so saddened to hear about Ty. I will keep you and yours in my prayers. Please keep us updated on his condition. Hugs and blessings, Deb

Prayers going out to him and his family. That has to be tough seeing him in pain. Please keep us informed.

Toogie, I will remember your grandson in prayer as well as all his family. Hugs, Judy

You have my prayers for Ty, and for the skill of the doctors treating him, I hope they will soon have the infection under control. Hugs and blessings, Meganne

Prayers and hugs to the whole family!!!!!!

God bless you all.

Oh no. I am so sorry to read this. It is so hard to watch a loved one suffer and even harder when it is a child. My prayers will be with you, your family and for Ty. Angie

The poor little thing. He has all of my prayers and so do the rest of you. The hardest thing in the world is to watch a child suffer and - you are so helpless- cannot take the pain into yourself and have to watch them go through it.
My Grandson will be going into hospital at the beginning of December for a large op. to remove his ureters from the bottom of his bladder and re-implant them in the top - where they should be. I am already in tears when I think about it. He will be 10 on the 5th December. I am almost standing in your shoes.
A large hug and all of my best wishes.
