Ruud is my Dexter....



Today in the elevator of the AVL. Was there for my 8th blood blood analyse... every monday... 


I've got my own bloodstain pattern analyst his name is also Ruud. Never saw him. He works in the lab at AVL. 
I see his name on the tubes with blood. He analyses my blood on the scientific disciplines of biology, chemistry, mathematics and physics....  If an analyst follows a scientific process, this applied science can produce strong, solid evidence, making it an effective tool for investigators,.....my oncologists.

The Leco look

I just saw Leco van Zadelhoff on TV. I have my flaws.... I love Leco hair (and Marco Borsato) 
My mom promised me last year a treatment by Leco when my hair had grown back.
It's a long wait but one day I will look like Leontien....

Loving Parents

Mom and dad came by to help around the house. 
Dad worked outside.....(high pressure cleaner)
What must I do without them!!!

Couch potato

First week after 3rd chemo. I'm tired. 
But also bad-tempered. 
It's temporary.... Maybe tomorrow or in a few days I will find my good mood back.
Otherwise I have finally something to talk about with my shrink.

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
I get high with a little help from my friends
Gonna try with a little help from my friends

My shrink says you have different kinds of aid.... Head, Heart, Hands.

Some friends surf on internet, 
some friends you can talk with, some bring lyrics, 
some bring juices, some take care of my kids
and some friends cut my hair or give me hair......

Room with a view

Today a session with my psychotherapist. The view from her couch.
Talking helps. It gives us other views.

Rudi and Messi

I live a really dull life at the moment. I'm so tired that turning on the tv is already too much of an effort! But my incredible husband has a little more adventurous life! Ruud photographed the God of soccer, Messi, in Barcelona for an Adidas campaign yesterday! Ruud is my hero! And not only because he photographed Messi.....

Taken with my last hair.

Phase two


I lOVE bald men. Such as my own husband (see here under) ! But also Bruce Willis, Vin Diesel are not bad either. Even bald women such as Sinead O'Connor (Natalie Portman and Demi Moore..... only for one movie) look good with a bald head. 
But I'm not them!
