All:

I am writing with permission regarding a mother whose baby has been
diagnosed with partial galactosemia.  The baby's initial screening
suggested galactosemia, and further screening suggested "borderline"
galactosemia.  She is seeing a specialist shortly.  In the meantime,
she has decided to breastfeed once a day and is pumping to protect her
milk supply until she decides how to progress.

Diane Wiessinger (thank you!) directed me to a great article on the
LLLI website (http://www.llli.org/NB/NBJulAug97p123.html) but I have
found remarkably little else (nothing in Lawrence or Riordan, anyway)
on borderline galactosemia.

Has anyone else ever seen this?  Have resources to recommend?

Many thanks in advance!
