Karen,
Thank you. My gut has told me for quite awhile that something is not normal with his eating problem. I believe it's more psychological than anything. He underwent induction chemo, then 35 days of concurrent chemo and IMRT, followed by a selective neck dissection. All in all, the treatment stretched out over 7 months. I was his constant caretaker and the person to ask questions of his doctors and do all the research. To my knowledge, he has spent very little if any time in forums or on the web reading survivor stories since his initial Dx. I'm sorry to be venting, but it's been so frustrating to witness his inability to reach out to people during this brutal treatment, particularly to other survivors, and his inability to push himself to eat even if it tastes horrible--just to get real nutrition. I love him, but I don't believe his approach to recovery is healthy.
