My non-vet opionion, based on having a very good horse of my own go through the same thing, is that Uncle Mo has absolutely no shot of ever making the races again. If he does, he didn't have Cholangiohepatitus treated with meds for only a few weeks.
Hold on...you had a very good horse in this century..Someone call Joe Drape!
