    Well actually there are a few breast-milk banks who have milk available for hospitalized
babies in need. I tried to donate breast milk to one of these places, because I think
it would be a wonderful cause to support in this way...since I'm dairy free and follow
a vegan diet, I just knew that some dear precious little baby would benefit from
this. Guess what? Can't. There is such a fear (aids and other human body fluid transmitable)
of lawsuit/liability cases in the US that no one will take donated breast milk. In
fact, I still have some in my freezer.....got a recipe for that vichyssoise? :)
