Tom's not eating anything we give him. Lysing thinks that maybe if a visitor gave him food, he might eat that.

Do you mean if a visitor persuaded him to eat the clinic-issued food, or brought something more appreciably authentic that he might be receptive to?

He was highly upset the last time I visited, but I intend on trying again tomorrow, if that is alright.

[quothethedoctor]

Either. He could be brought our food and I think he might eat it if he doesn't know it's from us, or he might eat somethintg if he knows for certain we haven't touched it.

Certainly. Did you two argue?

[ororo_munroe]

He was upset that I would not take him out of there.

[quothethedoctor]

-nods- I can see why that would be. He was angry at Raven for the same thing.

It is possible he will just throw the food at me, but I will try anyway. I know a restaurant that he favors. Is there anything specific he cannot have? Can he ingest solids?

[quothethedoctor]

He might be hungry enough by now to actually want to eat, rather than throw things, but he's stubborn. The effort's appreciated on this half, anyway.

No forks or knives. Spoons and sporks are alright, but they have to be plastic. No alcohol or outside medications, of course, and probably better to not go with too much caffeine or citrus. As for solids, I don't know. I'd probably think no, sense Shatterstar told me he hadn't been eating solids before he got here.

[ororo_munroe]

I will bring him soup then along with two trays of the clinic-issued food as well, for him and myself. Perhaps, I can use the prior as incentive to help him trust the latter.

[quothethedoctor]

I hope so. Thank you for this.
