Sharing my successes and failures, the emotional trials I endured and the optimism I now possess for a brighter future, I hope will in some way provide a measure of support for another person in recovery from a gastrectomy or experiencing dumping syndrome.

The dietary principles and the techniques I used for dealing with the problems worked for me. However it is always in your best interest to consult with your physician before you adopt any suggestions from another person.

Living without a stomach is not something I can relegate to the past.  It is an ongoing way of life.  Dumping syndrome will continue to be a factor in my Life from time to time.  As time passes, and together we learn, I am greatful for the friends, many of you, who also help me.
