Urgent Prayers Needed for 6 month old baby girl

We have a member of Photography Cafe who has a six month old little girl who is having surgery tomorrow in England.  This darling little Rebecka has four older brothers and needless to say, she's the apple of her Daddy and Mummy's eye and also of her big brothers.

Rebecka has had a very rocky road to travel since her birth and now tomorrow, she must have one of her kidneys removed.  Mick and Angela were told today that the prospects of this dear little girl living through the surgery are very grim.  The surgery MUST be done but they don't think that her heart will be able to stand the surgery.

I'm posting this today to ask those of you who believe in prayer to please pray that little Rebecka will have the strength to go through this major surgery tomorrow.

Her surgery is to take place at 2 pm (right after lunch) British time.  That is 9 am Eastern Time or 8 am Central Time, 7 am Mountain and 6 am Pacific Time.

Please click on the link below to post in our Prayer area and later on, I'll give Mick and Angela a link to the topic so that they will see that there were many prayer warriors for wee Rebecka.

Thank you so much and and God bless you!

Here's Mick's post on the Cafe:

Sorry for this post.As I have no other way of putting it.
The medics have been round today and given us the ultimate warning.Rebacka has to have the surgery on her Kidney,but there is a good chance that her heart cannot take it and is likely to stop functioning during the procedure,they are that concerned about it that a cardiologist will be in theatre during the operation,and also instead of one aneathetist in theatre they are having two.
We have been told in no uncertain terms,it is very touch and go as to the end result.

And here's a picture they took of Rebecka just after she started eating some solid foods:

My heart goes out to this family.

Dear Lord,
You are the maker and creator of all. You are the Great Physician and the Healer.  I pray a special prayer for this wee little one as she faces this life threatening situation.  Keep her in your hand; touch her little body.  Be with the parents, and other family who love her as well.  Give them a peace about it, the strength to withstand it, and the grace needed to face each moment as it comes.  Also, be with the doctor's involved.  Guide their hands, give them wisdom.  Lord, above all, I ask that Your will be done, and through it all, Your name would be glorified.
In Jesus' Name.

My wife and I joined together in prayerfor Rebecka as soon as I learned of her condition. Our loving God is in control.

Father, what a beautiful gift You gave to these people in Rebecka.  Now, having given this gracious and marvelous gift, I pray You'll sustain her for them and make them to know Your gracious hand through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Heavenly Father, I pray that you wrap your arms around this family and let them feel your presence as they face this terribly serious situation.  I pray that you will guide the doctors and nurses as they perform their efforts tomorrow.  If it is your will I pray that this beautiful little child be healed and returned to the loving arms of her family.  In Jesus name I pray, Amen

Father I pray You will strengthen the faith of these parents, and other family members, who so love this little girl. 

You are so well aware of all things and I pray that Your will be done in Rebecka, the family members, with the doctors and technicians and each one whose life touches them.  Grant peace and assurance in Your omnipotence. 

I echo the prayers already posted in this forum.

Rebecka I am praying that you and your family know that Jesus is with you all the way.

In Jesus precious name Amen

God Bless Ruth

Most precious Father, wrap your arms around this beautiful child as she goes into surgery tomorrow. Be the Dr's eyes and hands, Lord Jesus ans he performs the surgery on her kidney. I pray that any and all of those in the operating room would have their hearts turned toward you Father and will lift her up in prayer as the surgery takes place.  I also ask Father that the peace that passes all understanding be upon the parents. Let your hand and your touch soothe their minds and hearts. In Jesus Name Amen.

Father, as I continue in prayer for this little one of Yours, I pray that you will comfort and guide this darling baby and her entire family.

I pray You will provide strength where it's needed, comfort at all times, and the true assurance that You are working in all, through all, and for all of Your children.

Please bring blessed peace and quiet to these grieving parents, and provide the wisdom and guidance and strength and skill needed for all who work with and for and on this this precious child.

In Your Son's blessed Name, I pray,

Amen

Oh, I must say a big "Amen!" to all of these prayers for Mick and Angela and the whole family circle.

I've been praying with each prayer posted, and will be praying tonight.

Mick & Angela,
Please be assured that we are praying and believing our Heavenly Father with you for baby Rebecka.
May His PEACE and healing power continue to flow through your lives to your darling baby.

Oh, Heavenly Father, I lift my heart and voice in agreement with all the prayers here for this precious baby girl.  Please guide and direct the doctors, nurses, technicians, and every person involved in her care.  Give special wisdom and skill to them, and please wrap your arms around her and her entire family, giving that peace and comfort that only YOU can give.

Let the parents and brothers know that there are many around the world who are praying in agreement with them that little Rebecka will be spared and live to bless many lives, and be a testimony to Your love, grace and healing power.

In Jesus' name I pray,
Amen

Dear Father, in reading all of these prayers for little Rebecka, I know you are feeling our desire for you to help her in only the way you can help.  Please give wisdom and strength to the surgeons, the nurses, the technicians and most of all to Rebecka's family as they await the results of this surgery.  Lord, you made this little girl.  You know all of the problems she has endured in her short little life.  And You can make them right.  Amen

I'll be setting my alarm so I'm up praying as she goes in to surgery! 

Sara

I'll be praying as well, Sara, when she goes into surgery.

I know that Mick will let us know when he can as to how it goes.


I hope that you'll all take the time when you are able to read the topic on Photography Cafe just to see the terrible roller coaster ride this dear family has had.

What a precious darling baby Rebecka is!  This must be such a trying time and great test of your faith as her parents.  May God grant you peace in the midst of this unknown.  I, too, will be up early and praying for you all in the morning as she goes into surgery.

God bless you and your family!

Just put Rebecka through the prayer chain at my church Mick.  My parents (my dad's the pastor) are on vacation right now but I called them too and told them to pray. 

Sara

Lord I pray for this family, I pray for little Rebecka, I pray that your hands be on the hands of the doctors when they go into surgery tomorrow afternoon.  Lord we know that you see the sparrow when it falls, so we believe you see and are holding this little tyke in your hands at this moment while they are preparing to go into surgery in a few hours time.  I pray that yu give her parents strength.  I pray that you be with her brothers through this ordeal.  At this time Lord you are the only one who knows the outcome of this operation that Rebecka is about to go through.  I am praying for total healing in Your name Lord for little Rebecka.  In your precious name, Amen.

Pat, if you can please pass on that I will continue to pray for little Rebecka until I read an update on her status after surgery.  Thank you so much for alerting us to this need.

God bless,
Fraoch

Dear Mick and Angela:

I am praying and lifting up precious Rebecka to our Heavenly Father.  I have prayed that her heart will be strong for the operation and that she will recover completely from the surgery.     I will continue to pray until she is safe.   Praise God because He is mighty and able to do exceeding abundantly more than we can ask or think! 

Love Ruthie

We probably won't hear anything for a while yet.  He told us that it would be evening before he'd even have internet access really because at the hospital they don't have it.  I don't know if maybe he's on the road or because it was such a stressful day that when they got home he just crashed or what.  I do hope they are able to get some sleep after a day like today.  It is 5:00pm here in Oregon, so probably about 1:00 in the morning (Thursday) there.  He sometimes gets online around now but I haven't seen him.  I'm still praying and if Pat doesn't post, I'll post an update as soon as we get one.

Sara

Thank you Sara. We appreciate your help.

Thanks so much Sara.  I knew I could count on you.  They may be just staying at the hospital and I don't think that the hospital is in his town. 

Yeah, it is in a different town.  The hospital does provide them a room if they need it though they don't have anything like we do here with a Ronald McDonald house type thing. 

Sara

My first thoughts this morning were prayers for this situation.
