I started preparing the foods she made for the family when I was growing up. Plus I give her vitamins and shakes,drinks that have nutrients in them. Stimulates her appetite, seems to work so far. I do like the suggestion Beth made. We will do what ever it takes to get them to eat. At times I don't even ask the questions of are you hungry or what would you like. I prepare the meal and place it in front of her and sit with her while she eats. There are a lot of factors that causes them not to eat. Meds, state of mind. But in the end all we want is for them to eat.
I hope this helps.
