So the synopsis of my earlier post re mom is that in my conversations with her doctors, I get the strong feeling that they are optimistic that she can recover and that at this point it is dependent on nutrition mostly, getting fluids in/toxins out and getting nutrition. She has drank 6 to 7 ensures in the past two days and has eaten about 50% of her meals. It takes encouragement but she'll eat spoonfuls after spoonful of vegetables when fed. Like 15 to 20 of corn, peas, carrots etc. With protein, flavor and moistness are key. Gravy is important. She usually does real good with breakfast.
