If you go back into the older posts there are several on different types of liquid foods. I wouldn't worry to much as long as she is inputting enough nutrition to maintain and also heal. I would also suggest she try some softer foods because she is going to have to learn how to eat and swallow all over. I am eating steaks. popcorn, choc, I drink alot of whole milk (4 cups/Day)
Please tell her it gets easier.
My best wishes for voth of you.
