Hi All and Tammy....

I think better to be pissed!....than defeated.  Hang in there, Tammy!  We're
all with you.  Be blessed...your work is vital.  And, be comforted that now,
because of your professional care, the doc-in-question can't claim, "I've
never heard of that!", because indeed, now he has.

However, knowing *defeat* usually follows repeated and unresolved anger, we
are at risk of losing some of lactation's greatest professional assets:  the
direct mother-care providers.

How can we support the frontline better?  Any fresh ideas or strategies that
have really launched a paradigm change in your part of the world??!!  Share!

............If nothing else, we may have to abandon our western way of being
pissed and give the Euro-Aussie way a go.

Namaste,
