Little Boy Asks Santa To Pray With Him For A Baby He Doesn’t Know

The Joseph family was incredibly excited when they had their newest addition to the family; little baby Knox was growing up to be an energetic little boy, and he was about as happy and healthy as you can get.

But for unknown reasons, on a perfectly normal day, Knox's father realized that his tiny little baby wasn't breathing and was totally unresponsive. Knox's dad called the ambulance, and immediately began to work CPR on his little baby.

The ambulance finally arrived, and they rushed little Knox to the hospital, but the prognosis was grim. Knox had gone without oxygen for an incredibly long time, and he appeared to be totally brain-dead. But then the very next night, Knox took a breath all on his own, changing the doctor's initial diagnosis.

Unfortunately, Knox's dad had to take unpaid leave from work, so family friends set up a GoFundMe account that's already raised nearly $10,000 to cover expenses during this terrible time.

Though the doctor believed there was no hope, Knox's amazing mother stands strong in her faith and keeps praying every single night. She knows that God may still choose to take little Knox home, but at the moment she's praying for him to remain in stable condition, and she's asking for your prayers and support.

But thousands of miles away, one little boy came up with an idea. And when you see the picture below, your heart will absolutely break!

His loving mother always thanked God every day for the blessings He had laid out for her.

The whole family was happy together and always setting goals to do bigger and better things for themselves and their community.

But when Knox was found unresponsive in his crib one day, the Johnson family decided to fight their very hardest.

Even though doctors said there was no hope, they chose life instead. They knew that baby Knox could fight, as long as they kept praying and asked their friends and family to pray, they knew that Knox would eventually stabilize.

Even though baby Knox has a long journey ahead of him, his family knows that if he recovers, it will all be thanks to their positive attitude in these dark times. So close to Christmas, this happy family has chosen to stay happy. But that's where things get even more amazing.

Prestyn Barnette, a little boy who doesn't know baby Knox personally, and would have stayed a complete stranger, decided to ask Santa to pray with him for that family, thousands of miles away, to get better. Hearing about the boy's condition from his Grandmother's prayer group, instead of asking for presents, he asked Santa for some help.

Little Knox and his family are all brave fighters, but a little help certainly won't hurt them in this time of need!
