Food "Gifts"
6-14-2008
It is always a challenge to find the right variety of food Jaymun will eat during chemo.
There are only so many options on the "room service" menu - and he has seen them all by now.
I figured out a trick though. What works well, is to order his food...
...then, just before it arrives, go down to the cafeteria and get my own meal - a wide variety of items.
I let him eat from my own tray first - a bite of this and a bite of that. Then when he sees his own tray coming he gets
excited about that also - and between all the samples he ends up with a full dinner.
The only problem is that by the time I get to my own plate,
I have to figure out which items are fresh - and which ones are little
half-chewed "gifts" left there by Jaymun!
