Letter: Cuddled for life

Sir: I read with interest your article on 'kangaroo care' (18 August). My mother-in-law who was 80 in June, was born (on a staircase) weighing 2 1/2 lb (1.1kg) and owes her life to the same kind of nurturing you describe. It seems that nothing is new.

Yours sincerely,

KAY PRESTON
