Dear Lord, please take this child and his family into your loving care and give the doctors and all his care givers the wisdom and abilities to heal him (if it be your will). Please also bless the players who witnessed and were involved today that they might feel some peace.

Futurebackmom,

Great Prayer. Just hope All turns out well. God bless this family and God heal this little boy.

The Lord be with this family in the hour of their need. May the Lord extend His grace and mercy to them to withstand the anguish and pain they are suffering. May the Lord extend His healing power to this child and give these parents a miracle. Amen.

GOOD NEWS!!

Message from Mr. Gladchuck:

For all of us who are concerned. I spoke with Mr. Jackson this morning who is the father of the child (Rowan) who was injured yesterday at the baseball game. He remains in serious condition and the doctors will know more as the day goes on. They’ll be doing a CAT scan to determine if surgery may be necessary. On the other hand if the CAT scan is favorable, there’s the possibility that he can even be released tomorrow to go home. Rowan is awake, alert and speaking with his mom and dad. Mr. Jackson said his number one question is … when can we go to another Navy baseball game? Keep them in your prayers and let’s hope for good news in the next day.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

I'd like to think all of our prayers work...

Thanks for the update. the power of prayer is stronger than we think sometimes. I was awake last night thinking about this so im glad we got an update. great news

Wow -- wonderful news! Thanks for the update!

Thank you so much for the update. Whew. My daughters are very upset about this, too, I can't wait for them to come home from school to share the happy news.

This family will continue to be in our prayers until we get the "all clear". And if you don't send one, then they will remain in our prayers forever!!!! Probably not a bad idea!

It's so bizarre, my heart actually feels lighter right now!..Thanks.

Subject: Rowan Jackson (the boy that was hit by a foul ball) Update

I just spoke to his grandmother and he is being released from the hospital
today. The bleeding has stopped and the doctor's have said that it looks
like he will be just fine. The Navy Baseball team is planning on honoring
him a week from Saturday when Navy plays Holy Cross in the first round of
the Patriot League Baseball Tournament.

Prayers work...

Awesome News!!! Thank you Lord!!

Thank God for answering our prayers!

That little boy is going to LOVE being the center of attention at the Navy-Holy Cross game!

Our God is an awesome God. Praises to Him for healing this little guy.

.

Not exactly sure what the Naval Academy will do to make this little boy feel special, but I think it is very honorable that they are waiting for the Holy Cross team to return to town so that the unfortunate young man who had the terrible bad luck of having the bat in his hand just millaseconds before the accident happened, will be back in town to first hand witness the God-given miracle of this child being OK. I have seen how the Academies honor children through "Make A Wish Foundation" and it so incredibly heartwarming when you see a little guy in a flight suit, military uniform, etc.

I will certainly keep everyone posted and see if a picture or two can't be shared...

Wow, great, great news. Could have been a real bad situation. God is good - you all are good for helping the boy with your prayers.

what a gripping and touching story... thanking the Lord in Kansas

Wow, that's great. Praise God.

Ummm, I think an official Navy batting helmet is in order to wear in all future games.

The latest little note amongst our Navy Baseball Parents Club:


Just a very quick follow-up. (Son's name) called me this afternoon and asked me: "Guess what I'm doing?" Before I could venture a guess he said: "Hanging out with Rowan at the ball field!!" Rowan's dad brought him to the field today and he cavorted with a number of the ball players, tossing around a baseball- just having a blast on the diamond, with his new buddies. Hey, that's as good as it gets...............................
Thank you everyone for your concerns and prayers...........
