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...
Hi there @BlancaP,,,have you tried making her some of the cup of soups? Nutrition wise, rather lacking, but it might help your mum to keep the fluids going. I remember when I was going through chemo that I got very tired of tea, tea, tea. I went right off coffee, (even the smell made me gag) and warm milo, hot chocolate and so on was too rich and sweet. I preferred savoury and salty foods. Just a thought.
