Hello Friends.
Today, 8 years ago my second life started, after they installed a mechanical Aorta valve (25mm) into my heart.
You only live twices they said, but I hope to get a third change, cos the valve is not everlasting.
Life is good.!
Enjoy it.
Jan

Het is een cliche,maar wij als (nog)""gezonden""kunnen er niet genoeg bij stil blijven staan!
Zeker na wat ik 2 jaar geleden met mijn eigen vrouw heb meegemaakt.
Petje af Jan voor deze foto met duidelijke boodschap!
jan

So you are a "miracle" smiling at all of us? How nice to see you are that well. Great self portrait. I like, also, how the beautiful green in the background looks against your light colors clothes. Thanks for reminder us that life is good and we must enjoy it.

Hello Jan, this is a nice portrait of you. Very relaxed and casual. I'm not sure about you leaning on that poor old lady there, she looks a bit weather beaten too.
So pleased the heart is still beating well
Keep up your exercise

Good job on the self portrait, Jan! And congratulations on 8 years in good health - and lovely to see that you embrace life. It's a good message to all of us.

Dat ondeugende lachje herken je direct.

Jan, enig zelfportret en ik vergelijk je gewoon met een kat - die heeft ook 7 levens - hoe moet ik je dan gaan noemen....

Hi Jan, Good relaxed easy going portrait. Shows you enjoy life as much as possible and the more you put in the more you get out of it. You will outlast 9 of those little valves i am sure!. TFS. Murray.

Goeiemôre Jan! en aangename kennis! Jou glimlag het ook my dag opgevrolik! Ek stem saam - die lewe is goed and moet geniet word so lank ons kan. Selfs voordat ek geweet het van jou tweede kans het ek in jou kommunikasie die idee gekry dat jy die lewe voluit leef! Hou so aan! Pragtige foto met goeie kleur en kom posisie - selfs al moet jy op die vroutjie leun;)
My very best for many years of taking care and taking pics!

Wia

Life is really good. You got to make her smile, too like yourself :) Good luck to you and best wishes for another 28 yrs :)

Hello Jan,
Wonderlike foto. I know what you mean when you talk about 2nd chances. So what more can I say except for "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" my friend. 8 years means your are still young.
I am 9 months old.
Groete,
BEn
