I'm with you on this, but has anyone on Lactnect thought of the possibilities of video
conferencing for special cases?
  Think of the possibilities, if I were having an extremely difficult time with a case, such
as Carrie's, I could project her breastfeeding over the net and get a second opinion from
another LC who may specialize in that particular area.
The video coferencing camera's are relatively inexpensive. Providing your computer has
the capabilities, I think this might be something to considered in the future.

What do you think the future will be?
