I just received word that Javona Peters has passed away. It is my understanding that, to their credit, both parents who are estranged, never got to the place where they fought in court over removing her feeding tube, but instead cooperated in medical decision making. This may not assuage their grief now in the agony of losing a child, but I hope both can take a bit of comfort that she was given every medical chance to survive. Our sympathies to her family.
