Hi Sherrie ~
 
Yes, I'm here.  The milk thistle in a very dilute form can actually
cleanse her liver and help it adapt the body back to homeostasis.  It
does come in tea form and I would recommend that first.  I would make 2
cups of water to one teabag, and only steep for 2 or 3 minutes until the
water is a bit coloured.  Then add 3 drops to 200 ml of her drinking
water for day 1, and 5 drops on day two.  If you need to add to her water
or change it once a day do so but only dose her ONCE a day.  Then take a
day off.  Start the routine again and every 3rd day give her a day off.
This is allowing her liver to rest for a bit as cleansing can be tiring.
If you can't find it as a tea, let me know.
