Many patients find anxiety meds to be a very helpful tool to getting thru their OC battle. Quiet a few caregivers have needed a little extra help too. Its nothing to be ashamed of. Being forced to face your own mortality or that of someone you love isnt easy. A therapist who councils cancer patients probably would be a good idea as well.

Easy to Eat Food List

(All measurements are estimates)

Giant High Calorie Choc-Peanut Butter Milkshake (1200++ calories per shake)

3 or 4 cups chocolate ice cream (regular/full fat type)
2 tablespoons peanut butter (smooth type)
2 tablespoons chocolate syrup
1 or 2 cups whole milk (can substitute half and half to add even more calories)
1 scoop carnation instant breakfast
1 scoop high protein whey powder (check with doc if this is ok)

Blend this extra long to make it very smooth and creamy so it goes down easier. If the shake is too thick, add more milk to thin it down to what works best.
