Yes, much lung congestion, I even have to be careful the way I pick them up,
if I put to much pressure on their chest it starts them coughing.
I am afraid they will get pneumonia. The two that are on the
Zovirax/antirobe have diarrhea really bad, but I know they get that from the

I just don't know anymore, unless this drug does something this week, I'm
loosing faith in it. I had such hi hopes.
I will keep you posted.
