My boy, Winter, age 6, has been suffering from a combination of aliments and I would appreciate any help anyone could offer. On Dec 31 I found Winter slumped out of his tube barely conscious. He was cold and his breathing was slow and I took to an ER where the Dr. informed me that it was probably insulinoma. Since, he has been taking prednisone. The problem is he has been showing some of the signs of ECE. Green slime, the distinct smell. I've been trying to keep him hydrated and we've been coming through it great until two nights ago. I think I let him go a little to long without eating and he started to crash again, but I fed him and gave him Karo syrup and he pulled through the night. But yesterday he began to refuse to eat or drink anything. I've tried everything. I've had to result to force feeding again. He's quite lethargic and seems to want to only crawl under his covers and sleep. I don't know what to do. Any suggestions? Randy Adams [Posted in FML issue 2557]
