Thanks for the update; I think Vulcanel &Wombat has very suggestions; get the RC out and say yes to get the IV feeding. I didnt know about your severe weight loss; this is serious.
BTW I posted my 1 part of the tsunami story at Trappers Forum; Hopefully it can inspire you in some way or another.
I would love to hear from that Katrina animal rescue.
I learn a lot from watching animals; and have several observations of animals in the tsunami; in part 2.
