Oh Marci I am so sorry to hear Layla is going thru this. When Giz had it the first time I Basicly knew nothing about the whole "watch the fat" thing. I thought I was spoiling him making his own hamburger patties and leting him eat what I ate. I almost killed him.

When he left the hospital we were given carafate to coat his tummy before he ate and they gave him cans of Hill's i/d. He really didn't care for it. That's when I learned back then about making him the chicken and rice, which he had no problem with.

In the past couple of years he has had only one other attack, along with one bout of HGE. I am very careful to read everything about his food before I feed it to him. He has been on Chicken Soup for a couple of years and doing great with it. I steer clear of the Beggin Strips that he loved. Have found some peanut butter doggie biscuits at the feed store that you can buy by the pound..I swear he would kill for one of them.

I give him a scrambled egg on sundays and the occasional pieces of apple. Can't really go with a nutritionist but this has worked for us. This can be managed. I can promise that from now on you will be in the Poo Whatchers Club from now on. I swear my neighbors think I am nuts bending over to check out Gizmo's "business" .

Prayers for Layla and for you that you will soon find what works best just for her. Please keep us updated on her progress. Will be thinking about you both.
