So...she has a pump that 
was never used  by another mother,  but it's 3 years old. That is a long 
time 
for mold to have a  chance to  grow. I can't tell her that her yeast is due 
to pump mold, but I did   tell her that the company only guarantees their 
pumps for one year and  the  potential for mold growth over time, since 
it's not 
a closed  system and cannot  be cleaned,  is probably one of the reasons  
why.

And the cynic in me is  thinking that this company has actually come up 
with a fool-proof system of  making more money.  Make an open system in which 
mold can grow, so that not  only should people not share pumps with one 
another, BUT the mother should  actually buy a new one for each baby -- or 
perhaps even every year if she pumps  longer than a year....Brilliant!  Absolutely 
brilliant!!
