thank you so much pat, you have been so supportive and kind through out this ordeal ellie and i have been through, as have many others, i hope i did not speak to soon, she did not eat so well tonight, but that seems to be a pattern, eats good in the morning and at lunch time and not so good at night,i certainly think she is well on the way to complete recovery, but we just have to hope that mouth does not interfer with that , and hope for the best.
