Well,  I wonder if they realized who you are when they sent you this
survey.  I could not bring myself to read the entire thing after I read
"If breastmilk was readily available mothers and babies would benefit"
How about if they help mothers and babies in the World  by encouraging
employers to provide 1 year maternity leave to allow ample time for
mothers and babies to breastfeed. Instead of the common 3 or 6 month
thing! or How about demanding that all insurance companies pay for
rental of breast pumps for all mothers (especially NICU moms).   I would
love to see them put the energy into that instead of selling
breastmilk.  Are they aware that there are milk banks around?  Just my
2cents.  They must not get the entire picture of mothers and babies
together breastfeeding.
