Noah...

This is a request for love, asking all of you who believe in the unwavering power of the almighty to work miracles in this life.

For a few months now I've been quietly following a sweet little munchkin known simply as Noah..

Noah has the most amazing blue eyes, full of expression and wonder.

On April 20th of this year, those lovely eyes almost closed forever.

On that day, a day like many before, his parents Erin and Mike dropped Noah off at daycare.. not knowing that this would be the end of life as they knew it.

On this day Noah's daycare provider got angry, maybe she was having a bad day, who knows..
who cares.. all we know is that she took out her anger on Noah.

She shook the then 5 month old, almost to death.

Since that day Noah's parents have been fighting for many things. For their son's life, for his recovery, for justice.

Recently, Noah's Dad asked for prayers for his son once again. It's understood that Noah suffered brain damage from his attack. However, there was hope that with time his brain might heal. That he may be able to come off of the large doses of anti-seizure medications that he takes and finally be able to blossom.

Unfortunately Noah's parents didn't receive the news they were hoping for. Noah brain hasn't made the transition they had hoped it would. Not only that, but he will require more and stronger meds for some time.

Erin and Mike know just how lucky they are to even have their son after such a vicious crime.
But somehow they can't help but hope for the miracle that their baby boy's brain will recover fully. How can you blame them?

If you would like to learn more about Noah and offer his Mom and Dad some much needed support, please visit them at http://www.noahsroad.com/.

You'll be enchanted for sure.

  1. I feel for this family. I wonder if Jaxsons lack of progression is his raging siezure activity on EEG, or the multitude of drugs he takes to just control them a little bit. Its a no win situation and makes me so sad.
