So asking her why she canāt is met with basically āi donāt want toā. Been happening ever since the strike. Point out that she needs to then the meltdowns begin. Ask why and yea, āstop hassling meā.
Olā boy does understand, but for some reason avoids any interest in food/supps. Heās had her along to see so many specialists over the last however longā¦ I really donāt get it. Is it a āthatā generation thing. In his line of work all of that stuff was delegated so Iām guessing thatās a reason too. But he canāt delegate out of this one. This is awful to watch. All the dude had to do was have a mild interest in it and this wouldnāt have happened or be less severe at least.

Damn. Thatās complicated. Perhaps head injury led to some eating disorder issues like ARFID? I donāt know much about it but maybe the kinds of foods that are tolerable to people with this condition might be manageable? Chicken nuggets or ice cream or white bread and butter. I donāt know. Itās not nutritionally complete but something is better than nothing. Sounds like the boat could provide options, could be chopped up to help with teeth issue, but they are having problems asking for whatās needed? Is there a way you could arrange with the boat directly to have room service delivered daily with a selection of tolerable foods? If she doesnāt eat it, youāve done all you can.

Heaps of elements there that lineup! Itās just so complex. I feel sorry for them both really. A boat with everything you could ask for and instead of being able to just enjoy itā¦ worrying about food and nutrition. Asked her about the view and she went straight into food :(
Iāve been looking up the boats menus but theyāre sample menus. Maybe I should ask olā boy for a piccy of current ones and see which ones could work blended.
