Hello. My name is Pam. My dad has laryngeal cancer and also lung cancer. We have had a hard time keeping his weight up and I have been looking for things that we can put in his feeding tube. He needs lots of calories but we have not been able to put any weight on him. Any suggestions would be great. He also has a trach and has not eaten anything by mouth for months. We found out he had cancer in May 2007. He is actually doing great other than not being able to eat.
