In these crazy times, I was wondering how best to help. I couldn’t imagine how difficult it must be for a young single mom to be home alone, newborn in her arms, cut off from her family, friends and support network.
I reached out to a couple of the parenting organizations and offered them code to embedded both our breastfeeding and infant massage videos on their websites. You’ll be able to go to ether Attachment Parenting International or Lamaze International and streaming BabyBabyOhBaby for FREE through the end of June … or longer if need be. Of course you’ll also find all their usual resources. Please feel free to share the links!!!! That was the whole idea! What a great time to learn infant massage!!!

In my opening comments, I was able to thank them and to acknowledge that my work rested on the foundation they had built. What amazing pioneers!! I considered them very special friends.
I was deeply saddened to learn of Marshall's passing. I would encourage everyone to spend some time and dive back into his life's work ... it will enrich you.
