    Help for a friend/former forum member re: Megaesophagus

    Not sure how many remember Kim who works with a Westie rescue group and gives her all but one of her own dogs was just diagnosed today with Megaesophagus. He's being moved to the animal hospital and they'll find out more when they get there. I told her that I knew some folks here had dealt with this or knew more about it and I would post for her. Any suggestions we can offer her?

    Whoops!  I posted the same thread twice.

    Thank you! I'll pass these on to her.

    I don't know anything about that disorder, but wanted to send lots of positive energy and prayers her way.
