He is doing really well. He has to take Lactulose three times a day and is on prescription food. He goes next week for his six week check up and his Bile Acid Test. At that point, we will see if he will have to be on meds and special food for the rest of his life. |
Thanks, I will check that out. My prayers are with that little furface. I don't think I could ever foster, I would never be able to let go
