[quote=Anonymous]OP, As a "health professional" you should understand that changing her diet now will do little to help her survive the absolute killer that is lung cancer. She's taken to drink to try and cope. You need to try to convince her to switch to antidepressants, because alcohol will interact with a lot of medications. Many patients with aggressive cancers need to go on antidepressants, because otherwise it's just too hard emotionally. This is probably going to end rapidly, OP, unless she responds miraculously well to the new cytokine drugs. So bear in mind that depending on stage, age and health, you might be looking at maximizing her current contentment in life instead of pushing her to make lifestyle changes to prolong her life.
