MAYBE IT'S NOT THAT BIG OF A DEAL: TG OPERATION AND LIFE AFTER IT

A LITTLE ABOUT THE OPERATION
A TG operation is basically an operation where the doctors remove your stomach. It can be partially or a total removal, it depends on the size of cancer you may have, or the part of the stomach where cancer is placed in. This kind of operations is a serious thing, but if you know your place of research it can be a little less scary. The reason I'm writing about this is that my mom had a very serious stage of cancer. I can't tell you more because I'm not that medically educated, but I can tell you what my mom went through. I hope it will help. :)

LET'S GET A LITTLE BIT INTO ANATOMY
My mom had her whole stomach removed, and the doctors connected the small intestine with the esophagus. Her body can no longer function the way it did, but there's not that big of a difference as I thought there would be. So the stomachs function is basically to break down the proteins in our body by the gastric acid. Because of the acid, the food we ate transfers into liquid and goes into our bowels. The difference now (without the stomach) is that there is nothing that can break down the food, so you have to eat more processed food or chew the food you eat to the extent where the actual stomach would have almost nothing to do. The big homework have our bowels. Our bowels transfer the ''good'' things into our blood and the ''bad'' things into our digestive tract. 

WHAT COULD YOU DO AFTER?
Everything that helped my mom maybe won't help you, but I'm willing to help if you are willing to try. I've searched for so many things, and at the end, I realized that it was all crap. If you listen to your body you just can't go wrong. My mom was very afraid to try anything because she had the feeling the incision of the surgery would open if she eats the wrong thing, as absurd as it sounds. We first started with fresh vegetables that were blended,   then with soups, even baby food, and it all went terribly. So, we started to listen to her body. It was not easy for her to think about how many times she has to chew to food, but after a little time, she got used to it. The only thing she had problems with was the feeling of an acid coming thru her whole body, but luckily we found the solution that worked like a magic wand.

THE MAGIC POTION
A long time ago, my mom bought this old lady's book with chemical-free things that you find in your everyday life (almost), and it had a billion advice on how to improve your health and the way of living. So, from despair, I started reading it, and as I went through the book, I had a feeling like there is nothing that could help my mom. I was asking everyone I knew for advice, and maybe it was in my head, but I had a feeling like people didn't care about my mom's problem. Until I found this mix of fruits and vegetables that the lady mixed into a juicer, and it seemed like a health bomb, so I thought why not. The only problem now was how to make my mom drink it. Eventually when she tried almost everything and it didn't help she gave it a shot. AND IT WORKED WONDERS. At first, it was a little bit awful to drink it but she got used to it. It has fixed her blood pressure, her tiredness, and it gave her a really big appetite. You just need a juicer and that's it. These are the things we used. You just mix everything together and let it sit a little bit. Keep it in your fridge and your good to go.

1kg of lemons (1kg is about 2,5 pounds)
1kg of beet
1kg of apples
1kg of carrots
1kg of honey

This helps with anemia, tiredness, keeps you healthy and improves your blood pressure as well as your blood count. As far as the food you can eat anything that is not too sour, spicy or any kind of strong food. Just chew your food well and your good to go! I hope it will help you, as it helped my mom. :)
