Chengdu, China - A Chinese policewoman is contributing to the country's massive earthquake relief effort in a very personal way - by breastfeeding eight babies.

A newspaper in Chengdu, the capital of quake-hit Sichuan province, devoted a special page to the 29-year-old woman, calling her a "hero".

The woman from the quake-ravaged town of Jiangyou has just had a child herself, the Western Urban Daily said.

She is nursing the children of three women who were left homeless by the quake and are too traumatised to give milk, as well as five orphans, the report said.

The babies who lost their parents have been put in an orphanage which does not have powdered milk, it said.

An estimated 50 000 people were killed in the May 12 earthquake, China's worst natural disaster in a generation.

Poor babies probably would've died otherwise! How AWESOME for her to do that

I don't think any of us have really confronted the enormity of the disaster- so so many people..... -------------------- Jeanne "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Chardonnay in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO, What a Ride!"

I think it's more than just giving milk, it's a very caring and personal thing to do. It's always nice to hear about the good when you are faced with such a horrific situation. My heart goes out to all the people affected by the earthquake. -------------------- Dee Dee , Mommy to: Ashley Marie 9/05/02 Joshua Lee 2/03/00 (Our Angel in Heaven)

I can't imagine the depth of tragedy there right now...it iritates me that we hear very little of this (and the cyclone in the past few days) but I know what Hilary and Obama wore to their last rally -------------------- "Before you were conceived I wanted you. Before you were born I loved you. Before you were here an hour I would die for you. This is the miracle of life.
