My dear friend, Crysie "Yawn", and her husband Ryan, welcomed thier son into the world yesterday (September 9th at 1:24pm). It has been a long journey for Crysie. She found out at 20 weeks that something was wrong with Parker. He had swelling on his brain and was diagnosed with hydrocephalus (it is a condition where thier is excess fluid on the brain). We had all prayed throughout her pregnancy that by the time Parker was born the fluid would have been released. Unfortunately, when Parker Grelecki was born the hydrocephalus was worse then they had thought. He was transported to Children's Healthcare of Atlanta this morning to have surgery to input the shunt which will allow the fluid to drain. After the surgery they will run tests to determine if there is any neurological/developmental concerns.
I am asking you to PLEASE pray for the Grelecki family! Pray that God is looking over Parker during his surgery and helping heal his condition. Crysie is one of the strongest people I know and has such a deep faith for God. But it has to be hard to see your baby taken away from you, not to be able to hold him when he was born or soon after. Crysie had Parker via c-section so she is at Northside Hospital while Parker is at Children's. Her husband, Ryan will be with Parker at Children's while Crysie's family is with her. They are going to allow Crysie to go over to Children's to be with Parker sometime today.
Please add this loving family to your prayer lists.
