Good news!

Dear friends,

This afternoon we were informed by Prof. Strijdhorst that all the test revealed that Anne, my wife, is still completely clean of cancer. The pain on her ribs is likely caused by stressed muscles. I’m sooooooo relieved and had a small moment for myself a couple of minutes ago. (Which evolved a strange salty liquid emanating from the corners of my eyes. Very odd).

Take care and really, really, really count your blessings,

Frans.

P.S. Later this evening I will hold another ceremony involving another kind of liquid. (Strictly for medicinal purposes, of course).

Best news of the day!!!

Hey Frans,

You have absolutely no idea how happy that kind of news makes me....seriously! My warmest regards and congratulations to your dear wife and to you, my friend....news like that should be celebrated in grand style!!

The first thing you oughta do is go out and buy a beautiful bunch of red roses for the wifey and then go out for dinner and champagne.

I am truly happy for the both of you.

JJ

I do JJ, and while I appreciate the sentiment... I don't see anything like that coming for a long time. But we can always hope.
