<<So far they've checked the water, paint, dishes, etc. and found
nothing.  The doctor is blaming the baby's high level on the mother's
breastmilk (of course!).  Is this valid?>>

Isn't it obvious?  why don't they check the lead in her expressed
breastmilk and establish whether it is a cause for concern. I can't
believe they didn't do this before they told her to deprive her
child of this ideal nutrition.
