The best thing that you can have on hand and feed them is Kitten Milk Replacement. It can be found at any local pet shop.
Then when they get a little older, you mix that with rice cereal or oatmeal cereal (baby cereal), make sure it's lukewarm, and they lap that right up. It's the best thing for any sick mousie.
Unfortunately, cow's milk/cream is the worst thing you could give them. But he also could have had internal damage from before, or been sick and that's why the mother abandoned him and your friend found him all alone.
I'm sorry for your loss.

I've found MUCH information and support on thefunmouseforum. they are VERY informative and it is specifically ONLY for mice.
