Last night this show featured a story about a small cult whose members
believed they got direct instructions from God.  One instruction was a
particular 10 month old child was to not receive any solid food, only
breastmilk.  I'm not sure about water.  Anyway, reference was made that the
mom couldn't purchase any breastmilk.  The child died.   The mom's lactation
status was not explained.  Did she even try to breastfeed?  Was she
lactating?  I admit to drifting off to sleep at times during the show but I
don't think these issues were explored.   This show was not about breastmilk
or breastfeeding but it (breastmilk, breastfeeding) was again faintly damned
by association.   Carla
