Peter, do you have any idea if any breastfeeding stuff (e.g., breast
pumps) is in that warehouse? I donated several bags and boxes of breast
pumps and other breastfeeding items, and if that stuff didn't go to a
breastfeeding mother, I want it back! I'll put it in Norman Family La
Leche League's Supply Depot for breastfeeding mothers affected by the
tornadoes; we have had several mothers come to get things.

Sandy, N5LLL
