Dear Cathy and Ilene et al:

I gave the mom with migraines the article from JHL and she is going to share
it with her doctor.  I did talk with her regarding hydration.  I too am a
migraine sufferer and have found hydration to be a real key.  In fact, if I
get the visual aura, I can sometimes circumvent the headache by drinking two
glasses of water in quick succession.
I will keep you all posted on whether or not this mom weans.  The headaches
are very bad, and occur every couple of days, so this mom seems to have an
extreme case.

I loved the comment about lactnet being like a soap opera....I'm going to sign
on to the archives now to see what I missed when my internet link was down.

Thanks to all of you, I feel like part of a big, talkative and very supportive
family.
