Dear Debbie, I sorry to hear about A.J. Along with the other suggestions, I would offer to try Royal Jelly. It might take a few days -even weeks- to begin to show effects but I think it has got an effect on the long run. Besides it also provides some vitamins etc to my knowledge. Hill's A/d proves wonderful in our case, so you might add some tuna, ground turkey etc to make it textured? I do not know whether others experience this but I follow my Karam each night with a bowl of food mixed with all the good things and a spoon, and he eventually eats whatever I have got for him. I never give up -never!- until he finishes. Sometimes we would play, sometimes I would pet him, and most of the time I would 'chase' him with the spoon-ful of Hill's A/D. Sometimes he would only eat from my fingers, so I use my fingers as the spoon... just another way of making him eat, so I thought I would share this with you.. Sending lots of good thought and healing vibes and prayers... stay well and do not give up...
