I have a very simplistic response to the question...  

I have a request from a mom who wants to re-purpose/pass along her 10
year old Medela Pump In Style Pump. She says it still works fine but has
no one to give it to. She wondered if I could find someone who could use
it. Is there a way to re-purpose it or would you recommend it to a mom
at all if it is 10 years old?  I told her I would ask around...this is
how I'm asking around.

Absolutely NOT!  I apologize for my next statement but I am going to
make it anyway.  I am disappointed that someone with credentials of
IBCLC would ask that question.  There is a formal tear sheet that Medela
has that will address and you can copy from the Medela website.
