Make Valentine's Day Green

Valentine's Day is normally all dressed up in PINK hearts and RED kisses for those in your life that you love. You go to the store and buy a sweet card and some pretty RED roses and maybe get some yummy chocolates and then head out to dinner. But what about the person who can't exactly participate in a normal meal? What if that person is restricted by the confines of Gastroparesis?

Maybe this year you can do something special and make Valentine's Day GREEN!!

Green is one of the awareness colors--if not the color--for Gastroparesis and by changing everything that is typically red and pink about Valentine's Day for the person that has Gastroparesis in your life, you are showing them support. And that is SO much more meaningful than a box of chocolates--but maybe not as yummy (haha)! 

I would like to challenge everyone to wear something GREEN on Valentine's Day. It doesn't have to be an entire outfit--don't want to look like Kermit the Frog--but a shirt, sweater, or a scarf and then make a sign that says something to the effect of::

I hope that as many people in as many countries as possible will take part in this movement. As a person battling this disease, we NEED to find a cure...NOW.
