I've seen so many links to this story and seen so many pictures of this woman. I can't tell you how heartening it is, not only for what she is doing for those children, but to know that it is making NEWS all over the world! This woman, doing something so natural to her that she didn't even have to think twice about it, is being praised as a HERO all over the world.
A HERO!!
I hope she is inspiring lactating women throughout China and others follow suit. If I was there I wouldn't hesitate to do what I could.
