Way to go, Nora! That sounds like a great source of protein and wonderful fats. If you've stopped her wasting and actually see some gain, that's huge in a cancer patient.
I've been hearing more about the apricot kernels, which seemed so promising in the 70's and then dropped off my radar.
And B complex is a great point for failed kidneys. They are easily lost in that voluminous urine, so replacement is very helpful. I failed to mention it, but all my KI patients get a glandular called Feline Renal Support, which I suspect has a lot of whole food B complex.
Thanks Nora. Keep us posted with Pookie. She sounds like a survivor!
