At the time he was around 14 weeks old and was 1lb 4oz. He would eat food when we forced it down. His blood sugar was a roller coaster having blood drawn 3x a day to check it. It would skyrocket and then it would plumet. He wasn't keeping his blood sugar up after he ate as if the food was just helping for a few minuets and then dropping again. They tested him for everything under the sun and it all came back negative. The final diagnosis was that he was so tiny that his liver just wasn't working right yet. He's so much better now!
