I created this website to help people to enjoy a biscuit without compulsion to eat the whole pack.
And then my condition struck.

Now what?
Doctors have given me my life back
I consider 14.10.2025 to be my 3rd birthday. Aside from the day I was born, I had a first brain operation in March 2019 (and interestingly, a car accident exactly 5 years later) and now had a second operation to remove a brain tumour caused by Von Hippel Lindau disease. Every operation comes with the risk of death and disability, and, in a way, feels like a new lease of life. Waiting for the second operation has been an extremely traumatic experience: physically, mentally, and spiritually. However, like any crisis, it was also hugely transformative and allowed me to address issues I was unable to address for years prior to that. Hence, I decided to start a series of blog posts where I reflect on what I am actually doing with the life I've been given back two times now. I hope it will benefit me as much as somebody else who is either going through a similar experience, or is simply concerned with philosophical matters, such as what makes life worth living. I hope you enjoy reading the "Given My Life Back" series, and I welcome any feedback.
