I wanted to post about about Ann Sutherland. I am an adoptive mom who induced lactation with the help of Ann's bootcamp and message boards. Her website "fourfriendsdotcom" made it possible for so many women to induce lactation and relactate. She will be sadly missed by the breastfeeding community. Ann was sensitive and sincere with her support for adoptive moms.

IN LOVING MEMORY OF:
ANN SUTHERLAND 6/3/1934 - 6/26/08
Ann Sutherland is one of the few people in the history of the ABRW who really stepped up to the plate to help others. She was a charter member of the ABRW and also a long time member of LLL, in addition to being a loving mother and grandmother. She spent a tremendous amount of time helping women and babies all over the world who visited this site. The Boot Camp section of this site was one of her contributions in supporting women to induce lactation and re-lactate during difficult times. She posted on our message boards almost daily for a little over a decade, always offering helpful advice and comfort to those who needed help, never asking for or accepting anything in return. I would like her to be remembered and recognized for her selfless contribution and dedication to the many women and babies of the world. I believe she made an incredible difference in their lives. She was full of wisdom and experience and we will miss her dearly.
