The 32-year-old weighs a mere 89lbs and cannot eat solid foods without suffering vomiting, severe pain or nausea. In 2013 Lisa was diagnosed with Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome (SMAS), a gastrovascular disorder that causes a pinching of her intestines making it hard to keep solid food down. She is one of only 400 documented cases worldwide. There is no cure for the condition, but Lisa continues to undergo corrective surgeries to make her life easier.  To support Lisa please click the following link: http://www.gofundme.com/LisaBrown Videographer / Director: Brad Podowski Producer: Samantha Grillo, Nick Johnson Editor: Sonia Estal For more compelling footage of the amazing side of life: FACEBOOK: Like Barcroft TV - https://www.Facebook.com/BarcroftTV TWITTER: Follow @Barcroft_TV - https://www.Twitter.com/Barcroft_TV WEBSITE: For licensing & business enquiries, visit the Barcroft TV site - http://www.barcroft.tv/
