Here is an excerpt from a letter about her birth from Colleen. . .
What a rite of passage
Summer, I tell you.
Her name is SEQUOYAH ESPERANZA, my little precious.
May The Angels Guide You Always
Desparado's Here since 1/1/98
performing both her own songs as well as a few of Rick Summer Droit's Tunes.
Still Waiting for those Pictures Eliza!
"She was born, the 12th on the full moon in Cancer, 9 lbs. 11 oz.
After 17 hours of labor (drug free)
she finally decided to join the world of
mortals.
We did most of it in the water (a big tub), in the house with
the midwife.
She was born at home but passed merconium in her lungs and
I fainted due to too much blood loss so we were rushed to the hospital
where we spent 2 days.
We're both fine and if I had gone to the
hospital, they would have given me a C-section without a doubt so I'm
very pleased with the outcome of the birth.
Come back as a woman just to experience the pain;
You really are half dead ..
( the Mexican women have a saying, "One foot in
the tomb" and they're not kidding!)
You have to see her. I'll send pictures from the birth."
Eliza has been broadcast on Radio Bilingue and will begin doing a series of shows again soon!
