Welcome home baby Elijah



After a week of living in an ocean view Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, NICU, Elijah Raphael Fadi Mansour is now home with us.
Final moments before leaving the hospital
Jessica was scheduled for a c-section for today, June14th at noon, which is exactly the time we were walking out of the hospital with our 7-day old boy.
Elijah's breathing and eating is completely normal, praise the Lord for that.
The main concern is how weak/strong the bones are and the shape of his legs—upper and lower leg bones. We're still praying for a miracle. 


We are waiting on a genetic test result to come back from Washington State which will tell us more about what is going on with his body/bones.

We really appreciate all the love and support YOU have been showing us, and we ask you to continue to pray for the completion of healing in his entire body.

Elijah's coming home



Praises: We are very thankful for his breathing, eating, sleeping, pooping, peeing, and hearing in his right ear.



Prayers: Healing for his bones and legs, and that his left ear turns out OK. (He is scheduled for more testing on 6/28/12)

Handling Instructions, follow it as you pray for him

  1. What a BEAUTIFUL baby!!! AH! Just seeing you three together and learning that you are now home safe makes my heart well with joy. I will certainly pray for continued, COMPLETE healing in Elijah in Jesus' name.

    Please let me know if there is anything else I can do for you two during these happy, challenging times.

    Much Love,

    Alan
