Jimmie Allen and his family need some prayers today.
Last night (November 23), Allen took to his social media to let his 392.4K followers know that his 5-week-old daughter Zara James, had to be rushed to the hospital, after originally being turned down when Allen and his wife Alexis had expressed concern about her health.
“Attention Doctors,” Allen tweeted. “If the parent of your one month old patient tells you the child is having a hard time breathing and the only thing your lazy self wants to do is check her heart and temperature, find another career. Your job is to save lives, so do it.”

A few minutes later, Allen sent out a second Tweet giving further explanation on what happened to Zara.
“Now thanks to the lazy doctors at a hospital in TN that just sent our daughter home, our daughter Zara lost color, stopped breathing and is being rushed to another hospital. Thanks to the amazing EMT team that brought back Zara’s color she can breathe again. Gonna be a rough night.”

Since the news broke, Jimmie’s wife Alexis shared a photo of Zara to her Instagram story earlier this morning, to give her followers an update on their second-borns condition.
“The hardest day of my life,” Alexis wrote. “She is stable but still needing oxygen and suctioning frequently. Will give you an update once Z is healthy and heading home with us. Thank you so much for all of your kind words and prayers. It truly means the world to our family.”
