We have a six year old female Persian  (Spanky )who is in
advanced stages of Chronic renal failure.
A search by Diagnosis of this condition can be found at
http://www.vet.cornell.edu/consultant/consult.asp

Colloidal Silver has been suggested to use as possibly efficacious in
treating this condition. If in fact the claims supporting the
use of Colloidal silver are true, then surely there must be
someone on this list who has experience with this specific
disease and could possibly help us. We cannot afford to
spend much more money in saving our pets life. Our vet
has not discouraged us from considering alternative approaches.

Because we subscribe to Dr. Hulda Clark's protocols for disease
prevention and healing we have been made aware
of her references to Colloidal silver and have subscribed
to this list to learn if there is anyone that can tell us more.

The issue of Chronic Renal Failure among cats is what I would
call close to epidemic when I find one list that speaks of some
2800 members who have this specific concern in common.
Vaccinations make me terribly suspect as being a prime cause.
However, we are looking for solution to our problem with great
urgency as she is failing.

Our cat's kidney mass  was enlarged to about  4O percent of her
abdominal cavity. Since having her placed on antibiotics the mass
of one kidney has subsequently subsided significantly.
It  is difficult however to keep our cat adequately hydrated
since both  desire and thirst  seem to be abated.  The cost for
further diureasis and intravenous is now prohibitive. It is regretful
we must  put a ceiling on medical costs for our sweet cat, as much as
we love her.

If  Colloidal silver is a solution, then what are the recommended
amounts to administer  for a cat? How often? And what results
could we  truly expect? Is there cause for hope as we have her
laying beneath an infra red heat lamp for 20 minutes a day while
trying to nurse her back to health with antibiotics and a syringe
of water.  


Thanks,


Philip Wylie
