anyone hear anything? the article made me hopeful, but that comment pretty much crushed that optimistic feeling.

The thing with colitis is they get better and worse often with no warning either way. They can have a stable temp and appear to be rehydrating and a few hours later spike a fever back to 104 and look terrible. The treatment is pretty rudimentary in that there isnt any elaborate way of dealing with it, mostly giving them IV fluids and banamine to control the temp. This may be simplifying it to a degree but there just isnt a whole lot that you can do for them.
