Lacey has made it to 4 lbs and seems to be thriving

for the most part she is back to her happy self except right after she eats she still shakes and wobbles for about 15 min to a 1/2 hour, after that she is fine

6 months ago when we found out she has MVD we didnt think she was going to make it to her first b-day, but alot of extra tlc has gotten her back to almost normal. yeaaaaaaaaaaa!

Its so hard when something happens with these lil guys... You just love them so much & want them back to normal... Thanks for the update and we're so happy your furbaby is doing better

Also, what is MVD?

Wonderful!!!

MVD is hepatic microvascular dysplasia and is not operable. It is basically tiny little shunts throughout the liver instead of one extrahepatic shunt.
