Cerebral Palsy living independently Living independently of other people when you have a differentiation is not so obvious. I forget that, according to a doctor, I have a CP injury. People assume I live with a 24-hour servis and my wife cares for all chores and supplies me. OJ .. Yes, I have a wife.

Not even this is obvious with a wife, if you do not know who I am.
The next thought that arises is: How does she think when she lives with someone like me. What made her choose me … the more people think the more questions arise.

It’s just a blast of energy. I promise I have nothing in the kitchen to do.
My starting point when it comes to food is that there is some unnecessary pain that man has to do daily. It steals time to make other sensible things …. So I think it’s a good idea that in the kitchen I will not be … This creates problems. It is rare to go out and eat locally. The food is too bad and when we go out, it often happens that the chef asks my wife to make the food as she is a famous chef …
Among the few times I cook is when the oldest daughter comes and then there is genuine Swedish home cooking on the menu. It is high in courses on the Thai family menu when daughters are tired of Gourmet food ….
