First of all, thanks to everyone that responded with words of encouragement! It really means a lot to us to know that there are so many caring people out there. Luckily, it looks like we won't have to make a decision after all! We pretty much gave up hope when he stopped eating his puffed rice and his feet started curling up underneath him. He got even skinnier and we thought the end was just a few days away. Allison put some Science Diet in the blender and then mixed it with water. Fosgate went nuts over it and has eaten a whole bowl of it since yesterday. He is now strong enough to eat without having to be held by us and even tried to get me feet yesterday. I don't know yet if he'll fully recover and be back to his old self again, but he has bounced back from other illnesses so quickly before. We're still praying and hoping and it certainly looks like there's a light at the end of the tunnel. (Let's just hope it's not the train! :-) I'll be sure to keep the list posted! Once again, thanks!
