Hi Everyone,

       I am always reading these days with not much time to respond, but I
have a question:

       We advise mothers not to keep pumped milk during a thrush infection.
However, we all know that breastmilk is liquid gold, so would pasteurizing
the milk (bring it to scalding level) kill the thrush?  Obviously, boiling
would be better, as far as killing the thrush, but it would probably turn the
milk also.  My guess is that the answer is still NO because thrush survives
freezing temps, why wouldn't it survive scalding?  Just curious about what my
colleagues might think about this one...
