Merry Christmas 2019
2019 really sucked, it was a real rollercoaster and currently, we might lose our flat and all our belongings because we have no money to pay the rent or any other bills. Why this?, you might ask.
Friday the 13.th
It’s now two months and still no reply from the Netherlands and no money from the unemployment office. My landlady and her partner are literally bangging on my door and demanding money.

Have a nice day!
Well, well, well… The good news. The”re-wiring” worked. My digestive system seems to completely start up and slowly I can eat a little. Unfortunately, there is still the “occasional” nausea, but it gets better. I lost plenty of weight and I was never a big guy, more tall and skinny and now I am a… Read more Have a nice day!
The recovery process
It’s good to be home, but it’s not easy. I am exhausted, every task lasts longer and I am already happy when I am able to walk Indy to the second bench. I never imagined that it will be so hard to arrange life, doing the dishes or just get some bread. Except for one… Read more The recovery process

No more “Nose-Tube”
After ten days they removed the “nose-tube” and I got a little freedom back. Still connected to a “ZVK” (Zentraler Venen Katheter) in my neck. Sensors for my heart rate and …

I am still at the ICU and I realize that the recovery process will last longer than expected, but there is hope because the recovery process improves a little bit day by day. No more heavy pain medication needed, the sleep is ok and I had my first successful visit to the loo for days.… Read more As time goes by
