I try and make the meal look as colourful and pleasing to the eye as possible. Also, although George eats quite a lot, when ready, I always give him a smaller meal, so that he doesn't feel overwhelmed by too much food, and leave some on a seperate plate for him for later.x Jeanne

When Lee struggles to eat when the pain is very bad I entice him with ice cream as at least it is a calorie i can get into him.
Otherwise like you Jeanne, small colourful meals.
It is so hard when Lee is having times he can't eat due to pain then sickness.

Small meals on small plate, add butter & cream to meals to add calories & there is a product called Procal shots that is neutral taste & I use it in soups & sauces, & use it instead of milk in Billl's brews . I get this on prescription.
