Introduction
Hello, thank you for visiting my blog. Allow me to start by introducing myself, and my story. Because you ended up here, I assume that you kind more or less know what it is about, but for my story I'm going to assume that you don't know anything about me, or about GBS in general (yes, I will explain what it is soon).
My name is René, at this moment I don't feel the need to say my last name. Not that it is a big secret, but I simply don't see the added value of that at the moment. I might change my mind later, depending on if I get reactions etc.
I'm 40 years old at the time I write this, I was born in 1977. At school I always thought I wanted to end up in IT, which was a rising field of work at the time. And I happened to be quite good at it too, having a dad who was a Systems Engineer, teaching me all the basics and more. I studied to be a Systems Engineer too, and started working as one by the time I was 19.
I was a strong boy. When I was a child, I used to be sick all the time. I had a very weak immune system, but also I was a nervous child who would get sick from just being too nervous for his birthday, Christmas, you name it. I spent a lot of those happy moments either in bed, or trying to keep myself up.
After my toddler age that all went away. I've always felt that being sick so often as a young child had boosted my immune system in such a way that I was mister unbreakable for long after that. And for a long time after that this indeed appeared to be the case. I rarely got sick. Of course I got the cold sometimes, like anyone else, but it never made me sick enough to be in bed all day or stay home from work.
