Hello Nicki,

You might want to try giving Tom some smoothies thru his peg tube. It lke eating a large malt. It has 1300 calories each. I am eating two per day plus at least two meals to boot. Having my own weight problem. Am bound and determined to add weight every week!!!

1-cup whole milk
1/2-cup half & half
1-Package carnation instant breakfast
3-Tablespoons Oveltine
1-Tablespoon Malted milk powder
2-cups ice cream

It makes a little more than 1 tall glass can hold.
Tell Tom to hang in there. He is not alone and many of us can relate to his feelings. I think your doing a great job as his caregiver, make sure to rest yourself. Charge up your batteries as often as you can. Hoping Toms treatment goes by quickly. The end is in sight!!!
