Probiotics

Probiotics were mentioned today by the ID. The diarrhea is out of control. It is not getting better.
Leif allowed me to help in the diaper changing. It is basically thick blood. 

Probiotic questions:
1) As a last ditch attempt to help his gut is it possible to take Leif off all antibiotics and aggressively try probiotics to try and stop the Diarrhea? 
2) Is it possible to add probiotics without stopping the antibiotics?

Sepsis Questions:
1) What is the possibility of sepsis now?
2) What would be the possibility of sepsis without antibiotics but with probiotics?
3) What is the chance of sepsis with antibiotics and probiotics?

Is there an expert on this anywhere that could be consulted?

Corbin the neighborhood cat came in and lay down on the couch between him. Mary is allergic but pet him anyway. I can here her weeping in her bedroom. eric is with her now.

I hadn't posted in a while. this is what I wrote: This is such a hard picture to post: My friends Mary and Eric lying on the floor after pushing an open box containing their son Leif into the crematorium oven. Eric had made a small wooden viking ship for Leif's bo...

the Lego arsinal

What Leif wants What leif has Lego guns are tiny parts. Not the tiniest, but pretty damn small. I have spent the better part of two days sorting through Leif's Lego collection in search of all weapons but especially guns.  Some of the other weapons include spears, swords and battle axes, but then I couldn't help but think of things that could be weapons like shovels and pitchforks and how about a broom? there are throwing stars but how about propellers? Skill saws seem a definite yes. Horns? A scorpion? What if the flowers were just a different kind of throwing star? And eyeballs could be bullets that see where they are going. A banana? a fantastically subtle weapon. But then Leif wanted "real" weapons not my made up nonsense. So i thin sliced the selection into little baggies, one with only real actual bona fide guns, one with legitimate Lego brand weapons, and then a third with what I called weaponizable parts. I found Mary on the floor crying, franti...

wolf

Leif loved wolves. The days before he died he watched the movie Wolverine over and over. His wolf stuffed animal was cremated with his body.
