I once heard Michel Odent answering a question from the audience as to the safety of his natural childbirth routines for babies who were not healthy normal full term. He said words to the effect, if compassionate physiological care is better for the normal ones, surely the sick, weak ones need it even more. Nan Jolly South Africa <So we're back to the same old issue: in working to save the weaker ones, we know we sacrifice quality of life for the stronger ones. But where do we draw the line, offering this care for this one, that care for that one?Diane Wiessinger, MS, IBCLC Ithaca, NY USA> *********************************************** To temporarily stop your subscription: set lactnet nomail To start it again: set lactnet mail (or digest) To unsubscribe: unsubscribe lactnet All commands go to [log in to unmask] The LACTNET mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software together with L-Soft's LSMTP(R) mailer for lightning fast mail delivery.
