I am trying to support by not buying the junk foods that normally he would eat (chips, cookies, sodas) and I bought a coffee pot that makes it into a travel mug (another one of his weaknessess). I am trying and he is making it a little easier but it is still a struggle. Thanks for all your support and words of advise. I really appreciate it.

It sounds to me like you are being supportive of him and as sensitive to his situation as is possible while still maintaining a normal life for you and the family. The coffee pot thing is a great idea. I use hot beverages a lot to get my liquids, to add dry milk for protein, to stave off hunger, to taste something sweet, and just to be doing something with my hands. It helps me a lot. Keep hanging in there............and feel free to join in and post as much as you want.
