Prayers for Cooper

I want to take just a moment to direct you to Andy Savage's website, where he blogged yesterday about his son, Cooper.

Here is the link: http://andysavage.net/default.aspx?p=84018&beid=116524

Becky and I have never met the Savage family, but I feel like I have because of Andy's regular tweets about his life, job and activities at Highpoint Church.

Cooper has Down syndrome, and a recent surgery has developed complications.

I've had Cooper and the Savages on my mind quite a bit this week. Here's an understatement: It's not easy when your child is in the hospital. Time crawls to a stop. So much of our society has turned into "you can get it as soon as you want it," which is the exact opposite of what happens in the hospital.

There, you can't get it when you want it, and sometimes doctors don't have the answer you want – or an answer at all.

Hopefully, Cooper will bounce back quickly.  In the meantime, keep him and his family in your thoughts.
