Hi. I just received a call from a lady who is looking for human milk. She
has something called intestinal dysbiosis  she said was caused by over use
of tetracycline to put it simply.  This is a chronic problem she has had
for several years.  She has done much research about human milk and its
potential use in curing intestinal problems.  Her problem is she can't find
a doctor in this area that will take her seriously. She found a mom that
was willing to give her milk but the husband would not agree to it.

As a LLL Leader I can't just ask moms in the group and as a hospital LC I
can't go around asking moms if they want to donate their milk to an adult
for medicinal reasons.  She has contacted a milk bank, but she can't find a
doctor that will write her a script.  I have never met this lady, but she
seems to be sincere.  I would like to help her, I am not sure what I can
do. Has anyone been faced with a situation like this?  Thanks!

Christine Lichte, LLL Leader, IBCLC
