Rhonda, how much [if any] weight has he lost since this started and what were his eating habits before? My husband,before cancer,liked to eat one big meal at night and nothing the rest of te day. When his stomach shrank after surgery, rad. tx, etc. he was never hungry and had to force himself to get nourishment. If Leon can't taste food, then it just becomes "something you have to do". One thing that might help is to cook something that makes the kitchen smell good [that he used to like and might be able to get down] Smell stimulates your brain. Amy
