Prayer Request from Pam (nazzareth@... 
This was sent to me by an email aquaintance.... 
Prayers are needed for Braedon Hembree and his family. Everyone with a 
large mailing list, please forward. I am writing to you now to ask for 
your help. I do not really know how to start a prayer chain, but we need 
a miracle. 
Braedon is just a 20- month-old baby boy in Clinton, South Carolina. A 
few 
weeks ago his parents took him to Laurens County Hospital with double 
pneumonia (both lungs). The next night he was transferred to Greenville 
Memorial Pediatric Intensive Care Unit in critical condition. He is 
in 
a 
"coma-like" state and on a respirator battling viral pneumonia. Braedon 
is 
only 20 months old and very weak. He is recognizing voices, as his heart 
rate goes up when they sing/talk to him, it especially got stronger when 
his big sister, Krista, talked with him. The doctor says this is good 
and 
this makes him think that Braedon's brain is doing fine. However, the 
doctors are perplexed by the type of viral pneumonia he is fighting. 
There 
is a hole in his lung that may require surgery. Braedon, has recently 
taken a turn for the worse. His blood pressure is extremely high, 
leading the doctors to think he is having seizures or strokes. He now 
has 18 chest tubes and lots of scar tissue building in his 
lungs. The right lung has no healthy tissue at all but at this point he 
would not survive a lung transplant. He is still on life support and may 
be on it for a long time. The family appreciates all your prayers and 
they 
continue to have lots of hope for improvement. I am told the family's 
faith is such that they are expecting a miracle soon. Be a part of that 
miracle. The power of prayer is great. I ask for your prayers on their 
behalf. Please pray for Braedon's healing and for strength and comfort 
for his family. He is only 20 months old. I am asking 
you to send this letter, or copies of it, to everybody you can think of 
that will pray for Braedon. Please also take his name to your church and 
church groups and ask others to pray for his healing. Many thanks and 
may God bless each one of you who cares enough to pray for a little 
boy's life. I am asking that each and every one of you please forward 
this on to everyone that you know. Please take time to do this right 
now. 
God Bless You, 
PLEASE READ, PRAY, THEN FORWARD
