The very best of luck to Ellie-mae. Even so far away I feel sure you are doing the right thing, at least I know you have made the choice I would make.

Do you have Mirtazapine in N.Z.? I use it every three days for my renal failure foster to reduce nausea and stimulate the appetite. It works really well. It's only a quarter of a small pill (though it is bitter) so isn't much to give.
