Dr. Skellinger called around noon on Saturday with new instructions on Schatzi's diet. For the next couple of weeks, Schatzi will be eating non-meatballs three times per day. Lactulose continues at one milliliter per day; neomycin continues per the label. Each non-protein "meat"ball contains one cup of cooked rice or potatoes, one teaspoon of brewer's yeast, one cup of cooked vegetables like peas, carrots, zucchini, or turnip greens mixed with a third of a cup of applesauce shaped into spheres. These are to be baked in the oven until they are cooked enough to hold together.
She gets one "vegetable ball" (don't know what else to call it) three times per day for a couple of weeks, so mid-November we are to notice if her symptoms have abated.
