Sounds like a tough situation. You mentioned that there may be a kidney problem. If the kidney or adrenal gland is involved, I don't know to what extent that can cause depression but I'm sure the doctors at the hospital would have checked it out.
I hope that his parents remain very aggessive about having him treated. They can increase his dose of Lexapro and/or give him other very effective antidepressants such as Wellbutrin and Effexor.
