Got up too late for breakfast, although technically I would still be breaking my fast with the exception of the cup of black coffee I'm sipping.

Mushroom and Swiss omelette
That'd be decent. Ate the fresh mushrooms with steak last week, and my container of mixed dried mushrooms went moldy so I tossed it out. Cheddar, Havarti, and some sort of "ripened firm cheese," called bergeron classique in the fridge. (Had to check - I rarely eat cheese/dairy products.) Eggs, yes.
Hmmm, if no better winning suggestion before I finish my 2nd cup of coffee maybe I will throw some sort of omelette together. Maybe with a bit of leftover chicken breast from dinner last night for a multi-generational chickie concoction.

Full English breakfast is served with a couple portobellos?
Native to Italy.. which afaik England never even conquered. 
I do have some precooked bacon and some chorizo sausages. Could do up something close - especially if my dad's in the mood to eat much. He doesn't eat very large meals anymore, and with recent symptoms he hardly ate anything last week and has been getting thin/weak. But with new treatments and meds the last couple days, he's able to eat. What and how much I cook up may be entirely dependent on if he's going to eat a proper meal.

They're flat mushrooms.
Native to everywhere.
We even have them in Australia!

Maybe grown everywhere now.

Geography/History
Portabella mushrooms are native to Italy and have been growing since ancient times. The first record of the mushroom was from French botanist Joseph Pitton de Tournefort in 1707, and they were then heavily marketed in the 1980s at natural health food stores. Today Portabella mushrooms are widely available at farmers markets, specialty grocers, and supermarkets in North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia.

I'd hoped he might want to eat a variety of things - then I'd cook up more.. but he requested toast & cheese. I said I'll have similar but fry up a couple eggs for myself and asked if he wanted an egg.. response "Toast. And cheese."
So, toast & cheddar it is - at least there's some protein in the cheese and I sliced it a bit on the thicker side w/o being ridiculous about it. Far better than not eating like last week when he couldn't, especially with his myriad of medical issues. It's kinda wild he's in as good of shape as he is over all - docs a couple days ago that came to see him were expecting someone in significantly worse shape based on reviews of scans they'd just taken.

Makes sense. I've cooked them like that with a little olive oil so they don't dry out. I've added them on top of beef patties, but also had them solo in place of a patty - restaurants will serve those here, too.

Waste of pills, too. My mom's working out a better med schedule right now to try to keep things level vs. him sleeping in and missing meds he's supposed to take 4x/day. Such is life trying to stay alive a while longer.

That is a huge breakfast.No way could I eat that first thing.
Not a breakfast eater here, nicotine and caffeine are what I have.
I’d have to eat that around four o’clock.

I’m sorry to hear that.
Hoping he finds a schedule that works and he can enjoy meals again.
Has he tried cannabis for the vomiting?
They have tinctures now.
