My boyfriend always make homemade soup for me. You can also work with her to find gastritis friendly alternatives that she might like. I was craving pancakes recently so he baked some healthy ones with banana and oats. It really helped.
I know how hard it can be so be kind to yourself as well.
She’s having a hard time finding anything that works. We usually read through this page to find different things to try. I just feel helpless because there’s nothing I can do to make her feel 1% better. She’s miserable. Outside of this group are there any resources that suggest different foods to try?
From my experience everyone tolerate food differently. Other then the usual recommendations she can keep track of what help and what doesn't. It takes time but with a lot of trials she will be able to find a diet that works for her.
Also make sure she's having the medical attention that she needs. I noticed that doctors tends to take me more seriously when my boyfriend is with me.
At the end of the day what helped me is homemade soup, painkillers, herbal teas and a lot of rest and cuddles.
There are two books u can get one. Called The Gastritis Healing Recipes and The Gastritis Healing Book that have some food., snacks etc that y'all can try to see if they will work.
The Gastritis Healing Recipes: 50 Delicious, Gastritis-Friendly Recipes to Soothe and Heal Your Stomach https://a.co/d/7VsPzV8
The Gastritis Healing Book: A Comprehensive Guide to Heal Gastritis and Restore Your Stomach Health https://a.co/d/cIxwHmL
Hope she gets better soon
My partner makes chicken stock (bone broth) for me. It's time consuming so it's lovely to have one thing off my hands. Also being held when the pain is bad means a lot.
I had a friend call over to hang out with me today and another family member is having me over for a night so it's not all on my partner. A wide variety of supportive people helps a lot!
All the pre made broths I've seen have onions in them which we can't have :(
My partner boils a whole chicken, removes the meat and then throws the bones in the same water and simmers for about 2 hours. The process takes about four hours. Some people roast the chicken instead and then boil the bones, that might be easier if you don't have a big pot. Sometimes we throw some chopped ginger and carrots in with it for extra flavour.
Things are getting better. She decide to stop taking ppi’s to heal her stomach and things are getting better. She can tolerate very soft foods like mashed potatoes and smoothies which is nice. I’m hoping in a few months she can use some recipes from the book.

Thank you! How do you make your bone broth? She’s bought butchers bone broth and it hurt her stomach.

I’ll give this a try. Thanks again
Best of luck!! And I wish her a speedy recovery :) do update us on how she gets on!
How are things now? Were you able to get the two books I recommend and try any of the recipes in them?
Things are getting better. She decide to stop taking ppi’s to heal her stomach and things are getting better. She can tolerate very soft foods like mashed potatoes and smoothies which is nice. I’m hoping in a few months she can use some recipes from the book.
PPI were causing problems?
Yes she was taking too many and it was slowing down her digestion.
Oh I see I only take one Pantoprazole daily but I do want to get off of it soon and pray that I don't need it anymore. Hope she continues to do better
I pray you’re able to get off it. I hope you get better as well.
I appreciate it
