A favourite meal may suddenly taste metallic. A familiar smell may become overwhelming. A usual portion may feel like too much.
Cancer treatment can affect taste, smell, appetite and the ability to eat. Supporting someone through these changes can involve small adjustments, like serving less at once, trying nutritional meal replacements or choosing options with a gentler smell.
This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, RESAF honours every woman fighting breast cancer and every loved one learning how best to stand beside her through these changes.
