I am really glad to hear the the nutrition by mouth is increasing - that is great news. Have the doctors considered Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) by IV to help her along as she increases her intake?
I am sure you are packing the food that is blenderized with as many nutriants and calories as you can. My husband does breakfast shakes with fruit, oatmeal, milk and whey powder - they are VERY tasty.
