Alright, don't feel bad if you'll have to. We never know where life will take us and one of the good things about this whole online global connectedness is that there's so many of us connected now, that if we each give 5 euros it ends up being a huge amount and can really make a difference in an emergency.
Happy new year! I'm so glad to see that your wife is leaving the hospital and I hope she'll continue to improve so well. Also, did you put up a donation link for the medical bills anywhere? I've been busy and haven't had time to catch up with your blog much, but I'd love to contribute if you need some help. Most of our medical bills here are covered by the public health insurance
Oh my gosh, I hadn't had the time to check out your blog in a while due to our house renovation and reading about your wife's stroke was a shock. I'm so glad she's okay and doing better, I wish her all the health in the world and a fast recovery! I hope you'll all stay strong and try to have a nice holiday time together despite the covid restrictions and hospital stuff.
Congratulations to your daughter for making it this far, that birth story in the previous post is horrendous. It's beautiful because it all worked out, but it's horrendous. I think I've said it before, but people really underestimate how dangerous such a natural thing as birth can be
Looks delicious! I think imposter syndrome usually applies to work more than culture, and at this point most of the larger cities are melting pots. For example, I celebrate Halloween, because I enjoy the idea, but it's not part of our original culture here at all. I also celebrate Christmas even though I'm not religious, but it is part of the culture here. So, I think it's totally ok to celebrate whatever we want, as long we're not pretentious about it
