Hi Lee and others,

Yes, I am trying NOW to get through to my contact at FEMA and have  
forwarded him the links below concerning breastfeeding in  
emergencies.  These babies NEED their mama's milk so badly.  It just  
breaks my heart to see these babies suffering and being separated  
from their moms.  Here are the links I am sending now, but I am  
preparing to do a lot more when I can get with him one on one. If  
anyone has any other ideas, please let me know!
