#throwbackthursday – the picture is 10 years old and was taken when I ran my first half marathon ever….. and it meant so much to me. I was always terrible at sports, one of the last to be selected into any team and I dreaded sports lessons… running was the worst, but I started slowly …

At lunchtime I learn that Rachael Bland passed away this morning…. and I cannot stop thinking about her husband and her wee son 💔 Yes, my life continues and I am ever so grateful! I get comments that I no longer do coffee dates and yes, I am too tired, to busy, but I have …

„Your breast is so much better than last week“ – I am happy that my breast does not only cheer up my doctor, but also my physio therapist Alexandra Dietrich! The breast is ready to be cupped…. ouch…. if I had known how painful this is, I would not have gotten the permission from my …
