I’ve had Gastroparesis for 23 years and not only have I fought this fight but my family has fought with me and I am so lucky to have them by my side.

The battle is so difficult for each and every one of us every day and we all have different experiences. Malnutrition, dehydration, constipation, diarrhea, weight loss, weight gain, diabetes, vomiting, nausea, pain, bloating. We go through so many tests, procedures surgeries and medications just to find some relief.

There is no cure for Gastroparesis but there are studies out there trying to find a way to help us to through this horrible disease.

God bless all you warriors 💚

Combatting GP is TOUGH . This year alone I’ve been hospitalized more time then I can count. In 2018 I was hospitalized over 15 times . We may look “OKAY” but we’re NOT . Everyday is a struggle and we just want people to hear us , understand us and get educated . Everyday is a battle but I always remember that pain is so REAL, but faith is also . We want people to hear us ROAR, because we are warriors fighting silently everyday . We all don’t look like what we go through .
