Jamie I asked Leisa and she said no that the liver wasn't affected by the kidneys so it would be a whole separate issue. She said that you could tell jaundice by the whites of the eyes more than just by the color of the skin. She said it was easy enough to check liver functions too by a blood test. Jeanie look at the whites of his eyes tomorrow and see if they look yellow to you. Yuck is about all I have! We have thougt so many times though that dad was so bad and then all of a sudden he's so much better. Hopefully that will be the case this time too! Love to all, Judy
