Would you breastfeed your dad?



Will you breastfeed your dad?Georgia Browne, just like any other mom of a new-born, breastfeeds her baby son Monty. It is perfectly natural for her to do so as Monty will survive only the milk of his mom. However, Georgia’s milk is also saving her dad! Yes, you read it right… Georgia’s father Tim has been diagnosed with a strange cancer and the only way for Tim to survive is to drink his daughter’s breastmilk every day to boost his immune system. This, as per Tim & his doctors, gives him the strength to fight the disease.

After researching the idea on the internet, Georgia, 27, expresses her breastmilk as often as she can for her father to drink. He has the milk on his bowl of cornflakes every morning. It’s been his daily routine for the past six months and Tim believes the milk has given him a boost.

Life-saving milk
Georgia’s world was turned upside-down when her beloved dad was diagnosed with cancer in July 2007, just a week before she was due to get married. She gave birth to Monty last July and began breastfeeding. A month later, she watched a TV documentary in which an American man believed his prostate cancer had been helped because he drank breastmilk.

“The man went to a milk bank for his supply of breastmilk and drank it in a milkshake,” Georgia recalls. “I started researching on the internet immediately and found separate studies in America and Scandinavia both supporting the health benefits of breastmilk to cancer sufferers. Finding out I could help was amazing. I could play my small part in helping my dad do something positive for his illness.”

Seeking support
Georgia broached the subject with her family before going ahead. They all thought it was fantastic and supported her 100 per cent. “My mum thought it was great and my sisters and brother were supportive,” she says. With the family’s blessing, Georgia started expressing her milk for Tim straight away. She dropped the first batch round to her parents’ home in a freezer bag, which her mum popped in the freezer.

Hope at last
A month after starting the regimen, a scan of Tim’s cancer showed a slight, but distinct, improvement. Although doctors can’t say whether the breastmilk’s helped, Georgia says he’s brighter and has more energy.
