Woman with gastroparesis finds sound care and a new sense of hope
When LaKisha Williams discusses the challenge of managing chronic gastroparesis, she looks at each day as a journey.
“It is not easy. While I may be able to eat one minute, the next I may be nauseous or running to a bathroom. Any plans I make, I always have to consider my stomach,” she said. “While there have been a lot of changes, they overall have been for the better.”
Gastroparesis is a disease of the digestive tract where an individual experiences difficulty processing food moving from the stomach to the small intestine. For LaKisha, her symptoms of the illness began in 2018.
