Wink Re: brain mets

I am so happy to hear from you Pam. I wish I were closer, so I could make you some homemade thin creamed vegetable and bean soup or fruit juice. I do that for myself and I did that for a friend who had to have her jaw wired shut last years as a result of an accident.
If you don't feel like cooking or don't have anyone to help you cook I have a suggestion or two. Instant white miso soup with instant rice plus a little canned salmon and a few frozen veggies thrown in the soup might help. Also if you have a blender you might want to pour in some milk, almond milk, soymilk, rice milk or yoghurt. Add protein powder from a health food store and a little frozen fruit in small pieces like blueberries. Add water if desired. You can add a little honey, cinnamon or brown sugar if you want, but I never add extra sweeteners when I make it for myself. Cold cereal with milk or yoghurt is pretty good with a cup of tea. You can also get instant oatmeal. Just add hot water and some dried fruit like raisins.
Whatever you decide to do I hope the WBR kills all the mets, so you can get back to chemo as soon as possible.
Take good care of yourself. I have my fingers crossed for you friend.
