| I have had type 1 diabetes since I was 13, I am now 45. GP is a concern. I also lost a very dear friend to idiopathic GP she fought this disease for 20 years. The horrific pain and nausea were just some of the things she endured. Her and so many others deserve to live pain free . |

| I have this disorder so does my Mom I don’t get any treatment for it and it has made my life hell. I have GERD, IBS-D and many food allergies and intolerance and I seem to only get more. I’m 40 and wear depends because I fear leaving the house without them. I’m nauseous everyday and completely drained of energy. |

| Gastroparesis is a debilitating disease. Just when you think you are on the right track and doing better you get knocked back down again. When I eat it feels like I am eating shards of glass, or that someone has their fingers dug on either side of my rib cage pulling as hard as they could. I try but I can’t keep up with my boys (ages 9 and 11). I don’t want them growing up remembering that their mom was in the hospital the majority of their life. Please, help us find a cure. I am desperate and currently heading down the path towards a feeding tube. Please help me fight this. |

| I would love for this bill to be supported because I am someone who lives with gastroparesis. The lack of treatments, and having no cure isn’t acceptable. We need to do more for the gastroparesis community. Please, please help us! We need you!! |
