Because of the chemicals and medications used in chemo therapy lots of times foods taste different. Sometimes you'll enjoy foods you've never liked before, and other times your favorite foods take on new, very unappetizing flavors. So besides feeling sick, tired, and all the other assortments of side effects, chemo patients can have a hard time eating because of those changes.
Well, this week Mark discovered he likes butter again! It used to be a staple at the dinner table (to smear on a dinner roll, or homemade piece of bread), but it hasn't tasted right to him for a long time. This week he said he had a piece of toast with butter and jam and it was one of the best experiences to have it taste how he thought it should taste!
Thankful for little miracles this week :)
