Asbestos fibres can't come through in the milk!   BUT, they will be present in
the mother's clothing, hair and on her skin and baby will inhale dust from
here into its lungs.  Mother will inhale the dust at work and from her
clothes, on her skin and hair into her lungs as do other members of the
family.  This is potentially a time-bomb waiting down the line for all those
in contact with asbestos, this time-bomb is called Mesothelioma.  The asbestos
industry is still caught up in massive litigation against them due to this
terrible, terrible disease.

How about contacting the local environmental health agency, can you see them
allowing a restaurant to carry on business whilst asbestos is cleared from the
building or surrounding area - EEK!
