Letter

Please take a look at this letter to the editor in the current issue of Outlook magazine. It's under the headline "Oh Lord, Save Us from the Lard."

Some time I'll get my thoughts and emotions organized enough to write about breastfeeding on this blog. Until that time, this letter will do.

Go mimi! Well, what's weird is that when I was growing up, Indian moms were proud of how long they had breastfed their child and how they were so different from western moms. Its not that these moms have not 'known' the benefits. It just seems that this is also part of the rapid westernization which hasn't been analyzed too deeply yet.

I love how the magazine changed WHO to who. It took me a while to figure out what the sentence was.

The woman who wrote the comment seems smart. You should find her, meet her and make friends with her...but it might be too much effort since you aren't there that much longer.

Plus....she might think you are stalking her. It is something I would do. And have done...in hindsight with devastating results.
