Diana,
When I first had my g tube removed I could swallow almost nothing except ensure. Evenutally I worked my way up to cream of wheat and mashed potatoes. I describe my diet as soft wet and bland. I still can't handle spice and I need lots of liquid (gravy etc). Fruit never worked because of the acid in the fruit and very surgary thinkgs such as ice cream really didn't start working until this year. My best advice is keep trying. Put things thru a blender, add gravy, butter, etc and see what works. Try getting an appointment with a dietician who has dealt with cancer patients. My goal was always as many calories in as small a quantity as possible. Eating may not be fun for a while.
