Why this blog?

Reason For the Blog

Hello, my name is Steve. I am a middle-aged husband and a father of one beautiful girl. The reason for this blog is two-fold. First, by posting whats happening in my life in regards to the activity and treatment for my gastroparesis (gp) then I feel it is likely that some information from this blog may be of aid to someone who is also suffering from gp, aka "the stomach flux" everyday of their lives. The second reason I created this blog is so I may express what's going on in my gp-life. By typing away my frustrations I feel my self relaxing, both physically and emotionally. Feel free to send me any comments or advise you may have. Shalom.

Let's Call BLACK Friday "Seasick GREEN" Friday



Well, I made it through another Thanksgiving; my sixth since I was diagnosed with Gastroparesis (GP).  I made it through Thanksgiving utilizing my mad skills at watching cable, being on the computer or Kindle, and everyone with GP's favorite oxymoron; how it is possible for one person to be nauseous and hungry at the same time.  GP is always throwing us for a loops like that.

What I hated about yesterday and the upcoming holidays of Hanukkah, Christmas Eve and Christmas that I can say, even now, that I most likely will not be attending any of these events.  This will be the third year I have missed everything.  What I am hoping for is that I will get to my in-laws home after the Christmas meal.  I pray I am well enough to attend.  Unfortunately my track record is not to good.

Have a wonderful Hanukkah, Christmas and a blessed New Year.
