Hello, Bonjour, Hallo!

This is Life, :) on the forum since mid september. I'm a geno 3 and I will be starting my 12th week tomorrow...
Results: 2 weeks: under 12/ 6 weeks: under 30 (other doctor, other test!) 9 weeks: UNDETECTED (hospital-test) I'll be adding 4 weeks.

I'm writing this letter from Brussels, with the purpose of sending you all a lot of LOVE...cause that's what we all have in common!

In between this strange state of alert in Brussels (I'm at the train station right now) I have been noticing my own state of alert: less anxiety, I smell coffees, waffres and hot-dogs from a huge distance, I've been eating stuff I could not have dreamed of in years... :P
I must say...this past 12 week-route...got me out of... depression. And even though I'm still VERY vulnerable (you guys too?)...I'm getting there.

Another thing I should mention is that the transmission in my story has not been like most of you guys ...but it was sexually...jep...and no complicated business...(on one of the last days of my period)...just think about it... :dry: :dry:

I'm FINALLY taking MY time to THANK...that Aussie Greggie the Fisherman and Rock 'n Rolla James The Free Man...and of course THE secretary without a face...Rachel...The first song is dedicated to all of you...!!!! hopefully it appears, if not..check out on you tube!

And the second song is for all my lovelies that I've met on this forum!! THANKS FOR HELPING ME OUT, seniors! (even when I was flipping)
It's an Old Skool-song from Belgium....especially for those who had to cope with this *UCKER for such a long time!!
And as Emilio quoted me one day at the very beginning: WE NEVER DESERVED THIS....kisses and hugs to you all from here!
you Belgiums, make some bloody noise! :kiss:

Beautiful Life, thank you for sharing your journey and the music. I'm so glad you are doing great and looking forward to the new year. So much emotion with all the sharing and well wishes. I love this group and all of you people. I would never have had the courage to start treatment without you all. Onward, and blessings. :cheer: :P

One of my favourite bands from their last tour.

Talk Talk - It's My Life

Funny how I find myself, in love with you
If I could buy my reasoning, I'd pay to lose
One half won't do

I've asked myself, how much do you...commit yourself?
It's my life, don't you forget
It's my life, it never ends..

Funny how I blind myself, I never knew
If I was sometimes played upon, afraid to lose

I'd tell myself, what good you do
Convince myself
It's my life, don't you forget
It's my life, it never ends..

It's my life, don't you forget
Caught in the crowd, it never ends
It's my life, don't you forget
Caught in the crowd, it never ends

Hi Life! I like your attitude and your music.
these guys are one of my new favorites and they cruise through your part of the world often, as they are from Croatia. If you get to see them live its a good show. They sometimes play in an old roman coliseum in Croatia, Arena Pula, looks like an awesome place to see a show, theres a full video of a concert they did there on youtube, but check out this one, its funny....a little bit of AC/DC on electric cellos.

I saw them last year in US, would definitely see them again if I had the chance.
Happy New Year! (Still only new year's eve day here)
