Tristan is our miracle baby that God has entrusted to proud parents Lisa and Michael Featherston. Lisa’s pregnancy was discomforting related to her underlying diabetic disease. The pregnancy was high risk and Lisa did her best keeping her health issues minimal. She was even complimented by cardiologist on how he could visualize from Tristan heart how controlled blood glucose had been through pregnancy.

Delivery from cesarean section was difficult and came with complications. Tristan upon birth presented with almost perfect scores, off by 1/2 a point on Apgar. Recommendation was for a few hours of oxygen in transitional nursery. But from there to now his condition has fluctuated.

Tristan’s parents and loved ones are relentlessly and fervently praying for God’s mercy and blessing for Tristan’s healing so he can begin his purposeful life at home with family.
Prayers are being answered each moment and his family requests “in Jesus name” the prayer warriors continue to intercede on Tristan’s behalf!

💞Tia’s lil man, isn’t he just adorable! He is improving each day. Today they were able to transition him to normal ventilator, removed the chest tube, and PICC line. It’s been 10 days since we’ve held him. We are so grateful to God for his healing and protection of our lil one. 🙏😇🧸
