| The Story of Basil's Coming |
| What they learned in class came to test on November 4 when Nette had a "bloody show" at 6 A.M. Later in the afternoon, the couple drove to St. Luke's Hospital in Quezon City. Nette labored until midnight. On the third push, at 12.55 A.M.of Nov. 5, a baby boy emerged. He was 6 lb 7 oz. and 19 in. long. His name, Basil Gabriel -- meaning a kingly son of God. |
