Use a Child-Size Spoon for Swallowing Problems

People with cancer often have problems swallowing, either as a direct result of the cancer or as a side effect of chemo or radiation. If your parent?s mouth or lips are dry or sore, using a full-size spoon can be irritating and uncomfortable. Instead, buy a baby or child-size spoon (the plastic-coated ones are particularly gentle) and serve soft mashed and pureed foods that he can eat in small bites.
