Hello
I am in search of some 'ammunition' and some information.
I am working with a mom who is currently breastfeeding her 14 month old. 
When the babe was 5 months old, he totally rejected the left breast. Despite 
different approaches/tactics, the baby never accepted it again and after 4 
months of pumping it to maintain the supply-mom stopped and let the milk 
supply deplete.
During her research to find a 'reason' for him to reject this breast, she came 
across the info on the possibility of it being due to a tumor. She asked her Dr 
for a mammogram to rule this out (no palpable lumps/dimpling etc) but the 
hospital is not willing to do the test since there are no 'signs' of lumps/tumors.
What I am hoping is that someone knows of a specific article published about 
this so we can help convince them to complete the test.
Any help you can provide would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Donna
