Here is the web site of Iowa Health Systems and Iowa Methodist hospital
where the 7 babies were born.  Interested people may wish to link to the

The parents have received alot of free gifts from many companies,
fortunately as of yet there has been no offer publicized for free formula.
 But I can only hope that doesn't happen.  I realize that these children
will probably need formula, I just hope that it isn't publicized.

Although I know one of the LC's at Methodist, both perinatologists and two
of the neonatologists, I do not feel it is appropriate for me to call them
and ask about this situation.  I advise interested parties to check the web
site for updates.
