Appetite returns with a vengance

I'm happy to report that Bo's appetite has returned with a vengance. Also, aside from the last stone, the nephrologist says that his renal system looks completely normal. His GI was delighted by his weight gain and big smiles and babbling so much so that we are increasing his volume (to ward off more stone formation) and decreasing his time on TPN.
Boo Boo was completely lovely and cheerful through both doctor visits and didn't even cry on the way home, even though he'd only had one nap. What a good boy!
Once we get the stone analysis and one more urine analysis, the GI will know how to adapt his TPN to avoid further stones. He weighed in at 16.25 lbs and 25.5 inches!
