Dear Friends:
    Pam wants to know about studies of older moms nursing. There is a case
report of a 65-year old Nigerian grandmother that successfully relactated and
nursed 3 grandchildren very well after about 18 years of not lactating. Her milk
was analyzed and found to be remarkable comparable to that of a younger woman.
    There is a report of a 70-some old wet nurse, whose milk was still fresh
and sweet as a young girl.
    Women are amazing!
    warmly,
    Nikki Lee
