 Okay, the show is over, now let's get moving.  This is a storyline that is
going to be drawn out for a while, with the lawsuit and all.  What if we all
wrote to CBS & The producers of Chicago Hope -- what if:
  (1) Grad fights for a lactation room for all the hospital employees to use?
  (2) it turns out that the parents were actually following Ezzo?
  (3) the hospital LC is not IBCLC, but just the designated breastfeeding
nurse?
  (4) someone from Baby Friendly USA shows up to explain what the BFHI really
is
 to the docs & hospital board?
  (5) what else?  Come on, let's think!

 Come on, ladies and gentlemen, let's stop complaining AND DO SOMETHING to
have an effect on future episodes!

Dear Andrea,

I like your style.  As my mother would say, "Let's not cry over spilled milk,"
pardon the pun.  I would say that a good plan of attack would be the portrayal
of BFHI and the role of a lactation consultant.

Question though--what is this about the breastfeeding mother signing a
"contract" that she would not supplement?  Could any one enlighten me on this?
