To all who have helped me and given me advice, I got the pathologist update this afternoon about Bandit's kidneys. Apparently, neither ureter formed properly from birth. The report said there were sections of segmental aplasia and dysplasia in them. She told me he was completely born with it and that there was nothing we could have done. She said she was surprised that he lived a year with it like that. Made me feel good that I took good care of him for his year that he was with us!
