We don't prepare food in the correct manner; that's why we have a lot of sickness and we complain about our stomachs.
Comment:
This is a beautiful utterance, because it shows the way a speaker focuses on an event that happens again and again; but surely the toto applies to stomach aches that habitually occur with the episodes of sickness. I can't imagine the copula being used with all three verbs. -- Notice the way 'cry' is used transitively.
