Amy C and Garron, you've got my prayers, and the mouth pain could be thrush [which is really hard to control]. Hopefully your trip to Houston will find the reason and get it fixed. Glad to hear he has been able to eat some tho. Don't let him get dehydrated! Push those liquids by peg if necessary. By the way, we probably had 4 or 5 mouth rinses on the shelf , any of which might work on alternate days, so don't quit experimenting. Amy in the Ozarks
