I would look into hospice care
Maybe issue with swollowing
I bought high protein 2400 calorie powder, blend with Greek yogurt and milk, or ice cream , put pitcher in fridge, put in front of him several times a day. Put a couple if cookies with, just set it by him. He drinks it. At least he quit losing. He is on many meds. which causes weight loss
If you can get her to drink the protein shakes they can help. My MIL likes orange sherbert mixed with milk and I add a scoop of protein powder. She hasn't gained weight, but she isn't losing anymore.
