Like a smoothie. She just got out of the hospital with covid and the most I can get her to eat is a couple boosts and a jello and yogurt. Today she only took couple of sips and just wants to sleep isit her up and she sits there with her eyes closed so I put her back to bed. I'm having a very emotional day
