- David Update – Feb 26
“Today they’ve completely removed the oxygen away. He’s breathing completely on his own, hurray!!!. He digested a little bit of the 5ml they gave him this morning. And not much more to tell really today that we can see with our eyes. Jesus”

From Jesús this afternoon:
- Davy Repetto: Feb 22 update
Just received from Jesús:
- Baby David – February 20
I just received this email from Jesús with the latest update on David: “He’s breathing better today, [the respirator] is back to minimum help.

- Second Time Around
I am happy to announce that we are expecting our second child! I’m already 12 weeks and this is the first I’ve had (or taken) the opportunity to write about it. I often think about what I want to write, but have finally taken advantage of the few minutes I have while Josiah is occupied [...]
