Unfortunately, the runt of the litter continued to get weaker despite careful attention and feeding. Yesterday after I'd gone to work, the little guy called Amber over to it and then gave up the fight peacefully in her hand. I had already decided that I couldn't do the relentless feeding schedule for the next 4 to 6 weeks that are required to help them reach independence in the wild. This little guy reinforced the idea that his siblings would be better of with an experienced rehabilitator.
