Hi, Marilyn, still am praying for Frank! I know he has really been through a lot, and with so many surgeries, there were days when they had him sedated, and he could not eat well at all; let's see, I gave my husband anything he loved and could keep down, as the chemo made him so so nauseated most of the time. He loved milk shakes with say, frozen peaches, blueberries and strawberries in it, and diced up bananas. He never wanted Ensure or any of those nutritious liquid meal supplements, balked at those, but there were times, out of sheer desperation where I put it in to those shakes, and he did not know it. Just give him some of his favorite foods, one at a time, starting with his most fave, so to speak; good luck.
Hugs, Sandy Praying that things will improve day by day. ----- Original Message ----- From: Marilyn L DeWeese To: Tim Waugh ; BARBARA ADAMS ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; [email protected] ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; Brenda Parsell ; Jeanie Vejil ; pacovey ; kzolo ; Kathy Smith ; Stephanie Ashworth ; Sugarsyl ; lisa filroy ; Charlene Elder ; Doris Pennington ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; GREYHOUNDS RULE Cc: Joyce Porter Sent: Wednesday, February 20, 2008 6:36 PM Subject: [RecipesAndMore] Hello My Friends, Frank was sent to Marietta Memorial Rehabilitation Hospital today. He will be there for probably 90 days. I can call his room and I did that twice today but he thought he was on the computer the first time and the second time, he just said "where are you?" and then he didn't say anymore. I even yelled in the phone and he didn't hear me. I called the nurse back and she said he is okay, but they just had given him a bath and he was very sleepy. No matter what we or they give him to eat, he won't eat it. People have told me all kinds of things and so far, nothing has worked. I guess they'll keep trying the Ensure shakes with ice cream. I'll go visit him tomorrow. I didn't go today because we had so much snow here in the Plains. His neurologist thinks that he will improve in this rehab program. I'm trying not to get too discouraged. He drank half a milkshake I took to him the other day, but he won't eat anything from the hospital. Please keep praying for him. He has lost 26 pounds in three weeks.
