Mothers' Gift Fulfills a Need

Jay Snyder, father of Jackson James, left, and Reverie Vivian Snyder, lost his wife Michal in childbirth 3 1/2 months ago on Thanksgiving. With breast milk being Michal's primary choice of food for her children, the Manhattan father was left to uphold her wishes. With the generous aid of mothers in the area, breast milk has been continually donated so Snyder can provide the children's nutrition he and his wife discussed and planned before her death.
With the help of mothers, family and friends, like Snyder's sister in law Maitreya Rich of Los Angeles (in town to help Snyder with the children in photos during feeding ), he moves forward under difficult circumstances knowing at least this important component of his children's needs are being fulfilled.
