Picture a few months old but the only one I have available.

Prayer Warriors have seen this but we need everyone to offer prayers for Richie.
First a little history .... The last week of November, Richie received several vaccines which included the flu vaccine.
On December 2nd, he was hospitalized with paralysis of his arms and legs. He was put on a respirator and the outlook was bleak. I posted a note on FB asking for prayers from family and friends.
Richie is the grandson of a cousin who is more like a little brother than a cousin.
The bottom one-—and it also made me all weepy.
He is really something-—God bless him.
.
They’re all adorable but I really love the top one. Bless his little brave heart. Praying that God kees holding him close in His mighty arms to help him heal from this terrible reaction to the vaccine.
Thanks for sharing these, Amy!
Beautiful!
I love the last one - but all of them made me smile.
The first is definitely the pick here. That this child can be in bed with tubes everywhere and STILL smile like an angel gives everyone hope. LORD, thank YOU for giving Richie courage to face the unknowns. Praying his faith in You grows as strong as he in the years to come.
Amen.

As long as he’s smiling, it’s all good. ;-)
Thank you for the pictures, Amy. Every one is great. He’s so brave and full of spirit. What a special little boy.
Prayers continue.
OK... Which is your favorite?

Awwwwwww!
Simply can’t choose,.... but if pressed, I REALLY like the first one! But there is NOTHING wrong with the other two!
(((((Prayers Continuing)))))
They’re all beautiful photos. He looks happy, like he knows he’s loved by his family and he loves them right back.
Hoping this is the week for him to feel stronger...
The one with the smile. :-)
Whew! You made this a toughie! I’m torn between the first and the third so it’s pretty much a tie on those two. :-)
What an angelic face he has.
Still sad to see such a young child with tubes sprouting everywhere. I’m still praying for that miracle we’re all waiting for.
All are too precious.
He is so darling!
2 Peter 3:8
‘But do not forget this one thing, dear friends:
With the Lord a day is like a thousand years,
and a thousand years are like a day.
(I wonder if there is something similar when FR reaches 1,000 prayer posts for Richie??)
Never give up. Never stop praying.
A very, very special boy. Honored to pray for him.
