Ladies,
 
 I am a LLL Leader in Maryland, and through our email help service, I  got 
contacted by a mom in Palm Coast, Florida. We actually started on a totally  
different concern. But over the course of the conversation, she told me that she  
was told by her employer that she was only allowed to pump once  a day. As a 
result, her supply declined, of course. I thought she would say she  was a 
waitress or sales clerk, perhaps working where they know nothing about  
breastfeeding. Then she told me that SHE WORKS FOR A HOSPITAL!!!! I was so  shocked. I 
know I shouldn't be, but I was. She is very concerned with preserving  the 
rights of the women who come after her. 
 
I am following our LLLI channels, but I know there is only so much I can  do. 
This mom works at one of the Adventist Hospitals as a respiratory therapist.  
I'm sure I can get more info if needed. Is there anyone in Florida who knows  
more about the laws ther or what recourse this mom may have?
 
Thanks,
Shannon Thomas
LLL Leader, Maryland
