Please  give me some words of wisdom, and tell me I'm not crazy.   
Thanks.>>>>>
 
Mary,
 
Maybe on Marsha Walker's NABA (the National Alliance for Breastfeeding  
Advocacy) website, hopefully there is a list of "all the reasons why  formula 
companies should not be allowed to provide educational sessions,  educational 
materials, or interact in any way at any time with hospital  staff"....hopefully 
this list includes some research citations/bib.
 
If you can find a list like that, (try the ILCA site?), ...take all  that 
documentation to your peers and staff so that they have an  opportunity to 
understand the reasons and consequences. 
 
We really need a good video on this topic to show staff and  managers.
 
Anyway: *Don't give up* what you worked hard to gain, the success you've  
already achieved!
