Linda, This is a pet peeve of mine as well, that breast cancer prevvention articles never mention breastfeeding. I recently received a newsletter from a local hosp which was until 5-7 years ago the site of NY's milk bank. The lead article was on breast cancer and their was not a word about bf. Another article on osteoporosis stressed hormone replacement therapy, but never mentioned better bone mass in bf children, and in women who bf (after weaning). There really seems to be a conspiracy to not mention things that the medical-pharmaceutical-industrial complex cannot market and control. What a disempowering system. Argh! We "radicals" have to keep screaming the truth from the rooftops! One ray of hope- the NY Times often has complimentary articles about breastfeeding. Catherine Watson Genna, IBCLC
