Hi Ruth,
I just have anecdotal evidence: one of my friends was breastfeeding her
9 mo old when her 6 y old was diagnosed with non-Hodgkins lymphoma. She
expressed milk into his cereal every day. He sailed through chemo and
radiation and was cured. He is now a healthy grown man, and has never
had a recurrence. She thinks he's the first kid to survive that cancer,
but I can't verify that.
