Update

Miles was admitted into the hospital yesterday.  His lack of wet diapers and low blood sugar nudged us in that direction.  His pneumonia is responding well to the antibiotics.  However, Miles still will not drink on his own.  He was taken off the IV late this morning, but since he won't drink independently, the IV was started again.  We are spending another night in the hospital- just to be on the safe side.  And besides, if we had to come back, there would be no vein for them to stick.  Yesterday, only one could be found for the IV- that's it!  Miles' arms and legs are so chunky; all you can find is more chunk under the chunk.  Now that he is in pretty good spirits- still flirting up a storm.  He's been fairly happy, except when his temperature is being checked.  Can you blame him?  Wish us luck!
