Of course, it wasn't a breastfeeding baby that was denied food and 
comfort, it was a breastfeeding toddler... I imagine that's going to be 
picked up with and commented upon in detail... *sigh*...

We're in the middle of changing the set up on 'Nursing Matters' to be an 
organisation that advocates on behalf of breastfeeding babies (and 
toddlers) and not solely working with asylum infants.  But it's on the 
'to do' list and we still don't have anyone who can do web pages, which 
is what we really need.

But I rarely ever mention anything to do with breastfeeding now, and not 
start with "Breastfeeding babies...." as the baseline of the discussion. 

I can see a rare moment of farce occurring, when the officials in this 
one start to say "but it was a toddler..."
