Please pray for a young lady by the name of Ellen. She is Travis's 2nd cousin. She just obtained her nursing degree and has been plagued with strange health problems every since. Currently, she is in the hospital and has been for 19 days due to a condition called Gastroparesis. In a nutshell, her stomach is paralyzed. It usually occurs when the vagus nerve that stimulates stomach contractions is damaged. The damage is usually due to diabetes, hypothyroidism or damage during abdominal surgery. Pretty crazy stuff and rare. Most of the normal causes of this disorder don't seem to apply to her. Even worse, a good treatment isn't really available....
