Yay Pam!
So glad she is home. You will give her a wonderful life

What a great update! Keep in touch.

Hi Wende, I haven't heard this either.
How about introducing Joy to the forum and let us know what your daily Epi routine is?
Please include what Joy is eating, test results, any medications, etc.
Thanks
