Mum's first chemo session
Hi, my mum will be having her first ever chemo session early next week. The oncologist will treat her with Paclitaxel and treatment will be once a week for 4 weeks followed by 1 week break each cycle...
All the best for your Mum as she starts her chemo - when my husband had his chemo, he was in his mid 70s and totally lost his appetite, so I was trying to 'value add' to what food he COULD eat so that he didn't lose too much weight ....
Fruit Smoothies were good for him when he felt crook - I'd add custard & cream to them for some extra calories. He also loved smoked fish pies - so gave me a good excuse to go out fishing! ;)
Take care & all the best xx
