Dear Jay, I've lived this one many a time. At our station, Medela has given us scholariship pumps based on our rental level. I would definatley give the pump station the first opportunity to give her the scholarship pump and if they can't, simply offer to the rental station that you will/can provide the pump. I think that would show a great deal of respect for both the station and the mothers needs. As for you being the other gal, If this happened to us I would write a letter thanking the LC for providing this scholarship pump and remind him/her that our station could and would have done the same. Then send some great unifying (sp?) breastfeeding quote to keep the lines open. IMOHO Nina J. Lanphear LSP, CLE
