I read that 2500 to 3000 calories a day are good while in treatment. H says that docs put him on 2500 a day last year while in treatment and now he says that is more than anybody could ever need, cancer or not. His attitude towards eating has become exactly that of his late mother. We watched her decline into dementia, and eventually pass away. All the while H was saying how she needed to eat to keep up strength, etc, and felt like that is what caused the dementia.
He refuses to accept that losing weight during treatment is BAD.
Any articles out there that I might have him read?
