Prayer Request

I received this from Colleen asking for prayer

I need some help in getting as many people as possible to pray for a 3 year old little boy and his family. Last Friday, Logan Stehno was accidentally run over by his Grandpa. Logan's grandparents and parents are very good friends of mine and my husband's. Grandpa was leaving the house to go pick up Logan's sisters at school and did not see Logan follow him out of the house. Grandma was taking care of Logan's 4 year old sister. Sadly, when Grandpa was backing out, he backed over Logan's head and chest. Lo gan just has some bruised organs from the chest injury, but the head injury is much more severe. Logan is currently in a drug induced coma. The doctors at Hermann Memorial Hospital in Houston are going to try to start bringing him out of the coma today. If there are complications that arise, they will then put him back into a coma and cool his body so that the brain can begin to heal. His brain is still quite swollen. It is still too early to tell if Logan will have any permanent brain damage or even if Logan will survive. We are asking for prayers for Logan, of course, for his mom and dad Jeff & Michelle, his sisters Shelby, Haley, and Makenzie. We are asking for special prayers for Grandma and Grandpa George & Lydia Yackel. Thank the Lord that Lydia is a retired nurse and was able to perform CPR on Logan until they arrived @ the hospital. These families live in a very rural area, and if they had waited for an ambulance, Logan probably would not have lived. We are just asking that The Lord embrace this family in his healing arms and bring this family through this. We are wanting for enough people to pray for this family all across the US and beyond so they will feel the prayers working while they keep their vigilance with Logan. Please forward this prayer request to as many people as you can. Thank you and may God Bless You!
