Is she unable or refusing? Have either of them spoken to ship staff about making some nice soft foods for her? You said it's a pretty bougie ship, can she even have miso soup? This must be super stressful dude.
Both unable and refusing and I suppose they interelate. They spoke to the head chef about requirements when they boarded so I'm confused why they can't pull anything off. So we tried miso (i thought that's the obvious choice too) before they left from a few different places here and that was refusal but able. Tried a whole bunch of sashimi, able for some, refusal for others.
It's a really bougie ship. 24/7 room service. So speaking to them yesterday I asked if she'd ordered an iced coffee w/ chocolate and icecream (her usual thing she does here daily) and dump some coffee resource in (which is what usually happens here too) and no, didn't do that. Not refusal, very able, just didn't do it. What on earth do you do about that. grr.
