Things don't look encouraging! We had the vet out again today and gave him another mineral oil & Metamucil treatment to keep the sand moving out. We also drew blood to check his kidney & liver levels to rule out organ failure. It seems that procedure ends up putting Sandy in a great deal of discomfort hours later. He hasn't perked up on tonight's dose of Banamine either. He was rolling & pawing and I have not seen him do that yet. He's had a few good bowel movements tonight, mostly sand. The vet could tell by the color of his gums that he isn't feeling well. We'll have the blood results in the morning and will be able to decided whether we keep fighting or humanely let him go rest in peace!
