I am Janet Gransbergen and was born in Groningen. In 2010 my life changed abruptly, I was diagnosed with Parkinson's on September 23, 2010. I was 43 at the time. That doesn't sound fun and it isn't fun. At that moment everything stops for a moment. Like a bad dream, I kept thinking, tomorrow I will wake up and everything will be normal again. Not. But I could do two things... drown or swim really hard to the top. I did that. My daughter Alicia is my strength. She needs me. I'm positive, and that helps. I started painting, out of nowhere, when I paint I see the sea, it's in my head, the sound of the waves... the smell... everything. It's as I see it, nothing faked. I am not a painter, I am creative, and that is also my healing. Photography is also my passion. Nature, the forest, the sea, I enjoy everything much more. That's important...I don't need anything, the sweetest people around me...nature. I hope for a cure...maybe not for me anymore, but for all those people who have this rotten disease. I'm not pathetic. Have this and have to deal with it. And that's going well. I sing, dance and paint...I'm happy. I hope you like what I do and make, maybe I shouldn't be here. I do not know. Every person has talents...every person is unique...This was my story in short. Enjoy every moment... because every moment can change... and it will never be the same again...
