Hi. I’m new to this site as I’m struggling.  He is such a strong man, but to see him also struggling is horrible.  

my husband has been diagnosed with oesophageal cancer. We saw the consultant on the 24th December, he has offered chemo and immunotherapy to start the first week of January

His eating has deteriorated quickly and now on a liquid diet.  He can manage soups, so I am wanting to make soups for him.  Any ideas?  I have a bought a blender and sieve as there cannot be any lumps.  I know he has to keep the calories up. 

it’s so hard, as my husband use to love his food.  To see him struggling is breaking my heart.  And I’m finding it hard to eat in front of him, although he is telling me to eat as I need to keep my strength up.  

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
