Juchipila Zacatecas July 23, 1969 Jesusita, I hope with all my heart that you are all well, as are my wishes. I am more or less well, Thank God.

I received your kind letter and the ten dollars you sent us. You can’t imagine what good they did to us.

Your brother is ill sick from the balls and from his nerves because, they have bothered him terribly lately and he can no longer eat like he used to.

We used to help ourselves supplement our income renting rooms, but your brother closed them off and we now support ourselves with what he earns and also with what Lupe helps us out with.

I asked Demetrio why he didn’t write to you and he says that because you write to me, that I should say hello on his behalf because he procrastinates when he has to write.

Well, this is all for now. Receive big hugs from all your nephews nieces, and a little kiss from your godson Dany. Give my regards to Max and receive from your brother and from me sincerest regards, we pray to God to heal you to cure to deliver from a burden to give birth safely Also give my regards to Jesús and to all your children. Sincerely PATRICIA MEDRANO JESUSITA BAROS TORRES
