Seton's Disregard for Women and Children

RECEIVED Fri., June 11, 2004

Dear Editor,
   Cutting breast-feeding services at Brack and Seton is yet another example of Seton's disregard for women, children, and their well-being ["No Mother's Milk Here: Hospitals Cut Breast-Feeding Support," News, June 4]. The fact of the matter is that Seton provides obstetric services because they make money. When is the city going to realize that you can't provide good health care for all when the bottom line is your main concern? The city of Austin is clearly getting what it's paid for: inadequate, insensitive, and misogynistic health care.
