Gastro-pa-whatsis?
Chances are that unless you or a loved one have been diagnosed with Gastroparesis you have never heard of it so it must be rare... right? An estimated 5 million people are affected with this disease. Most of us feel Invisible and Alone. Penny wanted to share her story to help Raven Walton get on the Ellen DeGeneres show, so she can help bring awareness about gp to a national level. Raven also suffers from gp. She is a 20 year old pageant winner and dancer that also teaches dance to young children. She has had 7 surgeries to date and can expect another every two years until/unless a cure is found. She has a gastric pacemaker in her abdomen. She says when she dances she feels no pain. Please help us get on the Ellen DeGeneres Show to help bring national attention to gp sufferers. At this time, there is no known cure. Thanks for your help.
