Michelle, You did the right thing. "Good chance" is a very relative thing. On most things, I would consider it to be 50% or better, but with someone like Simon and something as tricky to predict as liver cancer, much lower would be reasonable too - like better than 10-15%. You'd also have

Kathy, thank you so much. Simon seems to be handling the meat ok. He wants mostly fishy stuff (which he had not wanted since getting sick) and the liver shake. I am feeding him every hour or so, and he generally eats a modest amount at a time. Except he empties the bowl of liver shake and licks it
