I'm so sorry to hear Lucy isn't responding to her diet. Consistency in Gypsy's diet is the only thing that keeps her relatively normal. Many prayers and good thoughts that she bounces back to full recovery quickly. Please keep us informed about how Lucy is doing. Nina [

Lucy is still acting very perky and normal, but now has soft stool even on 12.5 mg/day of pred and is not eating normally again, though with encouragement will eat an almost normal amount (a whole jar of baby food once a day plus some turkey mush and sometimes a few bites of raw food). I

That Lucy is such a little dickens when it comes to getting into stuff she shouldn't. I'm remembering the olive oil incident, (what's with the oil craving?). If she's anything like Gypsy, bread crumbs would be enough to cause trouble. I haven't had Gypsy on stero
