Yoda was just seen by another vet and it is still not good. They all think that he is not going to live more then 3 months. The space between his skull plates are just too big. Some of the largest they have ever seen on a little one. He also has water on the brain. They are so suprized that he has made it this long. They said that they usually diagnosis liver shunts when they are a few months old and to have this little one reacting to the medication this early is really good for now, but is really bad in the long run. He mostlikely will not live past 3 months even with out the skull plates being the way that they are.

So I was thinking on the way home that I am going to take care of him until I either run out of medication (which gets really expensive) or when he has one of his little breathing out bursts. Which ever comes first. Mostlikely it is going to be the breathing out bursts that he has been having every couple of days. I feel extremely bad about it, but I really have to do what is best for him. Please pray that he is going to have a comfortable and speedy crossing of the rainbow bridge. Until then he is again a permanent attachment to me with his meds being given every 4 hours and feedings ever hour and a half.
