"The most beautiful losers, that's us"

My life changed overnight in March 2024 due to a virus. Suddenly, I wasn't myself anymore. Thanks to my friend Maarten, who intervened quickly when he realised something was seriously wrong with me and kept pushing the doctors until I received the right treatment, I'm back to my old self. I lost my memory, but the memories have returned. As I try to regain trust in my body, I want to use it to raise money for everything the ItsME Foundation does, as they supported me and my family with their knowledge and network, but especially by publicising the extraordinary story of Jur Deitmers, which alone helped my family enormously in understanding my situation at the time.
