How another branch of the Breast Milk Depot has opened up nearby. (Note that the image is from elsewhere ... the local branch is the first link below/to follow on the FB.)
Admittedly, of all the depots I knew existed (which, just as admittedly, was mostly the Home one), this was a depot I *didn't* know about ... until seeing the announcement in last week's local paper.
I took a closer look, and sure enough, this is a serious thing ... all the more serious because the Breast Milk Depot is all about giving support to babies born prematurely. And, as it were, the extended Neidermyer family (one of my oldest blood-related nephews) just recently had preemie twins, and so I felt a little more drawn to the news (by several layers removed of course).
So ... seeing as how I can't contribute ... I thought I'd just help spread the word for those of you out there with some spare breast milk you'd like to donate to a (deserving) mouth!
