Hi

My mum finished her treatment mid November, and our family knew she would not feel well weeks after,  but she is back in hospital for the 3rd time. She's not been drinking and eating enough,  dad has tried tirelessly to cook her anything she fancies,  my siblings and I have also tried to help but she just don't seem to want to eat anything.  She's just not been herself & has lost a lot of weight. 

Has anyone else had the same issues,  we hate seeing her like it. Has anyone got any suggestions please

  • Hello KCC welcome to the group, but so sorry to hear about your mum.  You can get protein drinks on prescription called fortisip, I don’t know if your mum has tried them?

    Hello Chelle,

    Yes mum has tried these but they never helped. She is now in ICU with a bacterial lung infection which she has picked up since having a very low immune system. Hopefully the direct oxygen will help her.

    Thank you though for your help
