Together with my family we care for my mom who is in later stages of dementia. She has recently begun clenching her mouth shut and is unwilling to eat anything. At one point I noticed online a haberman feeder that has a straw with a plunger that I can plunge a teaspoon of puréed food into her mouth. I cannot seem to find it anywhere! Any tips?
Allow her the dignity of choice.
Do not force feed her. They won't eat because the organs are shutting down and cannot process food. Force feeding will cause tremendous pain. Get her evaluated for hospice.
