Too bad about eggs. Something else that usually is tolerable is Progresso split pea soup with ham chunks added. I guess not everyone likes pea soup but it feels like a comfort food.

I forgot if you mentioned what type of cancer you guys are dealing with. My husband has GEJ cancer (gastroesophageal junction) so his gut is messed up which can affect his appetite.

Also it is not uncommon to have chemo cause nausea. He is taking Zofran (and sometimes Compazine) to try to keep it under control.

He does really try because he knows if he loses too much weight they might not give him chemo.

Here's hoping for the best for both of them.

Cancer stage 4 in at least his liver and stomach. He is going to change his diet to soups with nothing in it like Tomato Soup or broth, bone broth etc. And you're right... my fear is that he will not be eligible for cancer treatment due to his low weight. Will find out January 2nd when we meet with his Oncologist. Yes - hoping for the best for both of them!!!
