Please Pass the Puree!
This Thanksgiving, over 5 million people will be unable to join their family's Thanksgiving Feast due to digestive tract paralysis. Individuals with the diseases Gastroparesis, Chronic Intestinal Pseudo-Obstruction, & Colonic Inertia will instead be partaking in meals such as: liquids received through a permanent feeding tube, liquids received through an IV, food pureed into liquid form, or a small serving of regular food that is no larger than the size of a fist.
Currently, there is not a cure and there are extremely limited treatment options.
For $10, less than the cost of a Thanksgiving Turkey, you can help change the lives of 5 million people searching for a cure.
This Thanksgiving, "Please Pass the Puree" to those who are suffering from digestive tract paralysis by donating to G-PACT!
Together we can find a treatment options and a cure!
