Can anyone suggest how I might obtain a copy of the article in J Hum Lact
9(1): 27-30, 1993 that Donna Zitzelberger mentioned? This was before my
involvement with ILCA or Lactnet. Since I am using this everter, and have a
policy for it's use, the article would be helpful. So far I've not run into
any legal questions regarding this issue, but would like to be prepared.
Thanks for any suggestions.
