 ;) Thank you for your support Debbie!  Things are going well now and Mia is drinking like a fish!  She & the kits are fine, these little ones are growing like weeds and changing daily.  I am getting lots of pics.  I still have never seen anything as cute in my entire life!
Hey I guess all in all things went well and could have been a lot worse.  So we were lucky.

Hi guys,
JoAnn had asked about the soy shake mix that I use(for myself, as well as for chins). What I use is called Spiru-tein, manufactured by Nature's Plus. The ingredient list is long, so I won't print it here. You can find it on their website (www.naturesplus.com). I can't say enough good things about this mix - it's incredibly nutritious. Every chin I've given it to has loved it. I often mix it with powdered alfalfa, which is a helpful drink for chins that are under the weather, especially chins that have just had dental work done...
I buy the vanilla flavor, but you can buy it unflavored. I tried the fruit flavors, but they were kind of yucky. You should be able to find this at any health food store, as it's been around for about twenty years. They have it in small sample packages if you want to try it out. Actually, now that I think about it, I think you can sign up on their website to get a free sample. Let me know if you ever try it!
