My exclusively breastfeeding sister (she has a four month old baby) was 
diagnosed today with Hodgkins Lymphoma, and is schedueld for a PET scan on 
Friday. She does have some EBM in storage, but as a stay at home mom, she 
was not expecting to stop nursing for a couple more years. 

As a WIC nutritionist/breastfeeding coordinator I am researching what will be 
the best for her to do. I'm using Thomas Hale's Medication and Mothers Milk, 
and my sister has a supportive/close relationship with the physician and is 
willing to follow recommendations on when she can or cannot breastfeed, and 
pump/discard when she is radioactive.

My question is this: if she needs to supplement, which formula would be the 
best? (she can get a perscription from a physician if needed and our family 
can help with any costs) Also, what bottle nipples would be best for 
introducing a bottle ?(this baby has never had a bottle.)

Thank you.
