Could you please pray for my three-week-old nephew, Leo, who was hospitalized on Friday with a fever? After the first round of tests, the doctors are pretty sure it is meningitis. He will be in the hospital until at least Wednesday but perhaps for several weeks.

Thank you all.

Thank you so much for the prayers! Leo has been on antibiotics and anti-viral medications all week and his fever is finally gone. They still aren't quite sure what caused it (no signs of bacteria, so it may have been viral meningitis), but my SIL said that if he keeps his temperature down for the next few hours, they will be discharged today. Otherwise, they'll probably be able to go home sometime this weekend. He is recovering quickly. Deo Gratias!
