I'm so glad to hear that little Marcel is doing better now... but yes, how frustrating to not have an answer to the cause of such a frightening episode!!
You mentioned a bug or something........ I don't know about a bug, but inhalation of any foreign body (tiny piece of "fluff" from the bedding? "dust bunny"? ANYTHING) may have temporarily blocked his airway??
Then again, I was thinking that if he had taken in something orally - the nutrical may have helped him pass it... you know, lubricating the esophagus ... (you said it sounded like something was in his throat and seemed to be able to breath easier following the nutrical) - - - but if he had inhaled something, it would have gone into the trachea - not the esophagus, so the nutrical would not have had any affect in that case.
Poor baby.... I just pray neither of you have to experience that again!! <<hugs>> |
