Hi –
My father hasn't been given long to live due to asbestos induced cancer. I have researched (and he has already started) alternative medicine treatments in addition to his chemotherapy. I read several resources that mention some of the essential nutrients a body becomes deficient in overtime are found naturally in breastmilk. I am wondering if anyone knows if there is milk banks that support illnesses (rather than just premature babies) or how one can go about obtaining bmilk from a private source.
Thank you in advance

One thing you want to be careful of when buying breastmilk from someone is their personal habits and background. My cousin bought and had donated to her breastmilk for her daughter whom she adopted. One woman's milk made the baby break out in a rash that wouldn't go away for months and months. The other woman's milk ended up being just fine.
You have to be careful though… some women who sell breastmilk have been found to be on drugs, or they may eat something that you are allergic which means that you will react, etc.
I would definetely pay more to buy screened milk.
Well, most milk banks charge for their milk (around $4 an ounce), so I would assume you could buy it from them. they screen their donor moms pretty intensely, but I have no idea what you need to do to buy milk from a bank. You might try craigslist.com or a similar site to find a donor. Breastmilk has been found to kill cancer cells on direct contact. good luck.
GOOD QUESTION!!!!
Sorry i couldnt help you tho!
