Jeroen Oerlemans,. the story will be told,.again and again
You will not be forgotten .
May you rest in peace my friend.
Whilst writing my story ‘at the wrong place at the wrong time’ I now find out you have been on the wrong place at the wrong time at the time of my writing.
But knowing you, you were not on the wrong place you were probably spot on, at the right place to capture the right moment for the rest of the world to see. You were determined to write the story what was necessary to bring to the people at home.
This time you payed the highest price.
We had the privilege to see through your eyes , through your camera what was going on in this world even if it were not the things we like to see, it was the real world. The wrong side of the coin.
You were kidnapped before with John Cantlie your friend, who is (now and still) again kept by IS since 2012. Politely you pleaded for his release. John, the British journalist who has been held hostage by jihadis since 2012, is used now as a journalist and exploited by Isis in an attempt to lend credibility to propaganda films.
One of the famous words of John Cantlie ‘I am a prisoner, that I cannot deny. But seeing as I’ve been abandoned by my government and my fate now lies in the hand of the Islamic State I have nothing to lose. Maybe I will live and maybe I will die, but I want to take this opportunity to convey some facts that you can verify, facts that if you contemplate might help in preserving lives.
Luck was on your side and you could continue to spread the stories , the beautiful pictures .
And now you are shot near Za’afaran in Sirte Libya by an IS sniper.
A very big loss, I hope this was worth it , it must be.
Confused, shocked, deeply touched , I stay

Conspiracy Files: Who shot down MH17?
“The wrong plane was in the wrong place at the wrong time.”
Imagine that you lost your loved one on the plane crash MH17 and the reason you get is not more than “The wrong plane was in the wrong place at the wrong time.”
Terrible horrible that is not an answer , that makes you shiver, that makes you mad, frustrated and everything else. I will not get to all the details, to describe this the easiest way is in my opinion another endless dispute between countries…which ends in misery for the ‘not involved ‘.
Why I started to read the theories is because of this picture, it caught immediately my attention.
A field full of men looking for rest pieces of the crash , searching for personal stuff , everything which will be of any clue to solve the mystery or to give to the people left behind.
My picture (click on to see the other pictures) underneath in black and white is the picture I sold on ArtBasel Basel, the one under the B&W is the field I was in making pictures to get finally to the black and white one.
The field where I was standing was in a total different country but it looks so similar! The world up side down. A moment to realise in which heaven I was making pictures. But also the moment where in a spilt second you can find men looking for rests of a plane crash….
My field where only little bees were flying that day, birds were playing hide and seek , the absurd silence of Ibiza hay field.The click clack of my camera resonated in the silence.
A field so similar to the field above, a field without a tragedy. No men walking, searching,.
Look at the picture with the men searching, where the last 4 could be easily the four trees on my picture , squeeze your eyes..you will see what I mean .
‘What is your point Lolo’? I hear you think! ,.I don’t know! ,
A realisation that my life is wonderful ?,
That things sometimes can look so similar but are so far apart that the difference should be black and white if you actually have to describe it . So basically things are not always what they seem!
That we really have to enjoy today and not thinking that tomorrow will be better because today already is !

I call him everyday
I call him every day,
He still knows how to pick up the ‘normal’ home phone when it rings.
The iPhone is in our eyes the best invented not to miss in our lives , but for my father hopelessly difficult and impossible to handle .
So when that one rings he probably rather throws it in the pond to be left there with the fish.
I don’t go enough, to Holland , I call him, we talk , sometimes I call again , we talk again.. about the same thing.
I love our conversations people with Alzheimer are better with their intuition, they are more honest , they are in a hurry to tell you everything they know and remember , because God they precisely know that they forget…
I realise I have the best part of him, the phone calls. To hear the voice of a loved one makes everybody happy. Only that can put a smile on their face.
So we want solutions but the world is not ready to find a cure which is approved by Big Pharma.
Diseases are coming and going we are very intelligent people and in some cases it is just a matter of time and we cure that particular disease.
Meanwhile families are tussling , loved ones are left with situations they simply did not learn how to handle and can’t be taught either .
Alzheimer’s disease has become the third-leading disease cause of death, behind heart disease and cancer. Its rate has risen almost exponentially over the past few decades, and the numbers are expected to triple by 2050.
Meanwhile, Big Pharma is clueless, which is a blessing in disguise, as some more effective, less expensive and less toxic remedies are slipping through the cracks.
And there are herbs from traditional Chinese medicine and Ayurveda that are helpful, while Big Pharma struggles with failures to create a profitable Alzheimer’s pharmaceuticals that might help more than harm.
But now there is another effective non-pharmaceutical solution to add: cannabis.
Gary Wenk, Ph.D., professor of neuroscience, immunology and medical genetics at OSU, told TIME, “I’ve been trying to find a drug that will reduce brain inflammation and restore cognitive function in rats for over 25 years; cannabinoids are the first and only class of drugs that have ever been effective.”
Wenk added, “I think that the perception about this drug is changing and in the future people will be less fearful.” Let’s hope so.
So my dear father is on cannabis..yep, he is , my cool dad dude.
Love you forever
