A friend of mine had to have radiation and chemo for multiple simultaneous cancers. It was suggested to her to drink raw goat's milk to help her body handle the invasion. She never got nauseous and always looked much better than the other folks who were going through the same treatment. She did lose her appetite, and her sense of taste, but kept on drinking the goat's milk. (This is not a claim to cure cancer, just to help you handle the treatment)

I finally found a source about 40 min away, I have to drive there once a week cause it's only legal here (Oregon) to buy it on the farm. I think it's a bargain at $5 a gallon, they have jerseys and jersey/dexter crosses. I don't tell my honey, but I'm currently getting a little extra to feed to the piggies! I soak bread in milk and throw in some eggs--I call it piggie french toast lol.

Have you checked the website RealMilk.com, to see what others in your state are doing? You may have to buy a share in a cow, or sign a paper saying you are buying it for animal feed.

$5 a gallon is a deal! I pay twice that. :hide Just wanted to say that you could get by with going every two weeks. That's what I do, and keep the extra milk in the coldest fridge, coldest area. Sometimes the rim of the jar starts to smell off, but the milk inside is still fresh.
