Just got a phone call from an LLLL - she was called by the mom of a 2 month old
who is hospitalized due to inability to digest any of the formulas. Now the MD
is willing to have her try some other mom's milk or milk from a milk bank. Mom
will try to relactate, but baby needs help now.
Is there a milk bank in Florida? I have info on Wilmington,Delaware;
Raleigh,North Carolina, Worcester,MA; Washington,DC and Lexington,KY - but
trying to reduce the transportation costs, wondered if there was something
closer to PR. or where we have more flights (NYC?).
I also would love any suggestions on how to handle "other mom's milk" which is
something I haven't had to face since the HIV/HepB have been so prominent in our
consciences. In fact, the last time I coped with OMM - I was the OM.
Thanks in Advance.
