Kathleen Bruce: Thanks for the empathy. I guess I'm lucky I have some videos, but not feeding tubes, but I could get syringes, no droppers, etc. It took me years to even get some new textbooks and a drug book. My next try will be to try to order Dr. Hale's book. It's the least I could do to thank him for his generous time in responding when I've asked and beside I'm sure it's a very helpful book. I have another gripe too about how money is spent. I also train peer counselors and we aren't allowed to pay for childcare for them while they are attending my class and I'm not allowed to use any grant money or WIC money to buy them refreshment while they sit through my 3 hour classes. This is per order of the U.S.D.A. not WIC itself.
