Sorta GOOD NEWS on Snoopy!!
Just talked to "Mom" at 2:00 pm ...

She & Amy are doing the *wait* thing - the Docs are promising a 2:30 Meeting
to go over the test results and present a Treatment Plan.

The preliminary "word" that was sent out is that this inflammation isn't "as bad"
as they feared it was - the fluid build-up doesn't test as "bad stuff" -
and it may all be treatable with just a change of medications.

The Docs want to wean him OFF the Pheno-barb stuff - that's what's making hin
a staggering drunk ... a med change might clear up a lot of his problems.

For right now - there's NO Plan for Sir Jury -
possible exception - a liver biopsy --- to be decided soon.

There's a good possibility all THREE of 'em will be headed back Home together!

THANKS, God!!

Note: Please keep the Prayers coming - Snoop's not quite "Fixed" yet!

I guess I don't come into the health section very often. So I'm just seeing this (after Snoopy being referred to on Woody's thread).
Please know you are all in my thoughts as well, and I hope you keep getting better news.

Phred, that does sound promising. Hope all the testing will give more
answers for Snoopys health. Prayers & good thoughts continue. If you
talk to Amy & Diana again, please give them our cyber (((Hugs))). Liz.

Mom called a while ago as we were steppin out ... sorry this is delayed a bit.

The overall diagnosis has changed - and not for the good.

Seems poor Snoopy has some serious liver damage.
The liver biopsy, costing an outrageous $2,000.00 - couldn't be performed till next Tuesday -
why so long a wait I don't know. But the kicker to that is the Docs don't know if the biopsy
would really tell them anything.

Last word I heard on The Plan for Snoop was that he'd stop taking the Pheno-barb stuff
and replace that with a less damaging to his liver drug - with "neat" side effects:
* possibility of explosive diarrhea
* more sleepiness
* BUTT - he'll be able to walk in a straight line again

If all went well, Mom and Amy have signed him out and by now they're all headed North for Home.

Sooooo ... it's been good news that there's no Sir Jury required ...
Not so good news thaa "cure" prolly isn't gonna happen.

Snoopy needs a LOT more PT Prayers for Health & Happiness.
