 We're living in The Netherlands, a little 
                              country that can be found this way:point your 
                              finger at the middle of England, go to the right, 
                              cross the water, and there it is, before 
                              Germany.
 We live in the town of my birth, in a 
                              house that feels to be too little.
 We're all 
                              fond of ballet. Lars even went to the 
                              balletacademy for over 5 years. The girls enjoy 
                              their balletlessons.
 I myself have danced a lot 
                              in the past and restarted when I was 42. Four 
                              years ago I had to stop because of health 
                              problems. I had been able to manage asthma, anemia 
                              and hyperhomocystenemia quite well, even during 
                              pregnancies, but diabetes and hemochromatosis were 
                              too much. After diabetes was diagnosed I started 
                              to "grow", and now I feel like I'm in the wrong 
                              body. I still feel the thin balletdancer! 
                              LOL!
 I'm a clinical psychologist and for many 
                              years I have been working with parents of deceased 
                              babies, parents with high risk pregnancies and 
                              those who work with these parents professionally. 
                              I'm the first birth-counseller, and I'm gratefull 
                              that the importance of this work is accepted now 
                              and spreading.
 I'm writing: work, but I've 
                              never asked money for it, because it's my opinion 
                              that grief councelling should be available to 
                              everybody, and not only to those who can pay the 
                              bills.
 Which means that we have to turn each 
                              coin, each month.
 I'm in the middle of starting 
                              an advice practice for parents of children and 
                              adolescents who might have ADHD, PDD-NOS, or 
                              autism.
 I have a lot of hobbies, and internet 
                              is one of them. Through internet I have met some 
                              wonderful friends, and I can't do without them. I 
                              hope to be able to meet them... someday... 
                              somewhere....
