Lynnet, wow, I read what you wrote and it was like I wrote it myself! Same
exact story with one of my cats. 
So glad you did this. :) Elizabeth

I started feeding him twice a day, all the (grain-free) canned food he  
would eat, and no dry food at all.  In a couple of weeks, the excess water  
drinking stopped, the limping and crying on going upstairs stopped, he  
became more active and playful, and his coat improved.  By and by I hope  
to start making cat food for him from meat, bones, liver, etc.
