[blparent] FW: [Chapter-presidents] Help us to bring Mikaelahome

[Veronica Smith]

I'm glad that didn't happen here, I almost couldn't get her to latch on at
all.  She had too many tubes coming out of her. V

Hi,

the bonding time with not just her mother but both parents is what I thought

of when I read this.  It's sickening that people feel that blindness is a 
reason to take children from parents, and first time parents at that.  What 
first time parent knows how to nurse and who isn't nervous about taking care

of a brand new baby?
