Prayer Request

Sonya Tinsley sent the following request:

As many of you know, we have a new baby in our home. He has many medical issues, the most pressing at this time is a heart condition called tricuspid atresia.
The shunt placed around 2 weeks of age is not in very good condition and he is living with a very minimal blood supply.
We will be taking little Aiden to Cook Children's in Ft. Worth for a cardiac catheterization on 2/10. He will remain in ICU until 2/14 or 2/15 at which point he will go to surgery for the phase II surgery. Aiden apparently has a history of complications after procedures and will remain in ICU for an undetermined amount of time at this time.
The doctors have stressed that the likelyhood of complications or even death are great.
We know that we serve a great and mighty God and He is able to do anything. Please pray for a quick recovery with no complications for this little guy. He has been through so much already in his short little life.
Aiden's mom is also expecting a baby anytime. Mom has admitted to using cocaine within the last 2 weeks. We have been asked that we take this baby in as well once it is born so that Aiden and his sibling can remain together. Please pray for this baby as there is a likelyhood of many birth defects (matching Aidens) in addition to withdrawals and complications from drugs.
