Not eating/ picky eater is a sign of LS. Is he on the dry L/D or canned? If dry, you could moisten it with some warm water or chicken broth (low sodium). You can also offer him green beans, fruits, noodles/pasta, cottage cheese mixed in with the food.

Did you ask about the ultrasonic treatment for stones? Wondering what they said...

There are YT members that live near the UofT, and may be able to offer assistance (pick him up and keep him till you could get there to pick him up)....

These are great low protein alternatives to mix in. Lucy loves them all mixed in with her food - except for fruit - she likes to eat that by itself. Maybe it will help him eat.
