You have had alot on your plate for a long time Pam. Be kind to yourself. Be good to yourself and take one step at a time and one day at a time.
If you don't feel like preparing food yourself ask someone to help you. Someone might be able to put some milk or yoghurt in a blender with some fruit and a little protein powder and make a delicious drink for you. Having things around to snack on is a great idea. I boil 3-4 eggs and keep them in the refrigerator. I can take one out for a quick snack with a cup of tea. Have a bag of those baby carrots or celery pieces around and eat a few pieces for a quick snack. Nuts are a great snack. A handful in a bowl next to you for whenever you can eat a few would be good. I keep a bag of salt free popcorn from the health food store around for a handful once in awhile. In fact mixing the popcorn with the nuts is delicious. Juices are great snacks. I like V8 Fusion juices. Little cups of applesauce make good snacks. I like to have a cup of yoghurt once in awhile. Little boxes of raisins make good snacks. Small chunks of cheese are good to snack on too. Instant white miso soup is very comforting.
I hope the doctor will give you some Halaven. If you are not well enough for a full dose ask for a half a dose. A half a dose is better than none.
I have my fingers crossed for you. We are all cheering for you Pam, so hang in there and keep going. It doesn't matter if you are moving slowly as long as you are moving. One step at time does the trick. Hugs !!!!!!
