Thanks Sue!! It's always a good idea to be "armed" with as much info. as possible! Amazing the amt. of info. you've been able to gather up. What a perplexing condition!!! Prayers are coming that Killi will, once again, prevail in quick order!!! It sounds like this condition might just be (dare I say it)...responsive to treatment??? I know that you and Killi will handle this with the grace and courage you two have always shown when faced with adversity. You go Killi Man!!!! And give your sweet sister Shi some kisses from me!! Love to Sue, Shi and Killi from Sandra, Cody and Star.
