Hello,
I read your post, and had a few questions.

> He is lactose intolerant and she has had him on all kinds of milks other than 
bovine. 

Why would she have him on all kinds of milk other that bovine if he is lactose 
intorlerant? Lactose is found in all real milks. Unless you are talking about 
soy 'milk',  rice 'milk', etc.


>I even suggested she think of banked human milk.
She is leery of this since she thinks it would be too difficult finding a donor 
with dietary restrictions etc.?

Again if he is lactose intolerant, he could not drink human milk either. What 
dietary restrictions does the donor need to be on? 

You (or she) might be confusing 'lactose intolerance' with an allergy to bovine 
milk.  Is that possible? That would explain the 'dietary restrictions' part of this


As far as whether or not it would be worth it for him to receive human milk I 
do not know. (I'll put money down her Pedi GI won't know either, but will say 
no)
