Her Last Meal

Wow.

Just wow. To be so young and discover that you have stomach cancer. Only 36 years old and they removed her stomach.

She can still eat but now, like a gastric bypass patient, her food intake is severely limited.

I can understand those who choose the bypass or bariatric surgery, but to find out that it's literally eat or your life? What a choice, especially for a foodie.

I better be grateful for my good health. Even if I need to lose weight, I still have a choice...
