Oh, and don't worry too much. The biopsy results on Teddy Bear were relatively good considering....you have to expect some damage when they have a shunt; but Teddy Bear is 8 years old and I would have expected him to be much worse. Hopefully Tibbe will be just fine! You also should not feel guilty...how in the heck would you have knonw??? You have gone to the vet and done all you can!
