A Salute to our Heroes and there Loved ones
Our life with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome is not the only mission we are committed to. My husband is a veteran who proudly served in the Royal Netherlands Air Force for 15 years, and although this experience has shaped our lives in many unique ways, we are incredibly proud of him.
I stand for a brighter future not only for veterans, but also for their families. Through volunteer work in many different forms, I advocate, support, and give a voice to those who often go unseen.
This page exists to honor them, to share their stories, and to make sure veterans and their loved ones are truly seen, heard, and valued.
In collabaration with
Heroes and Loved ones
Would you like to show the world how proud you are of your Veteran?
Share a meaningful photo and let your love and pride be seen.
Together, we are building a community that reminds every Veteran and their family: you are not alone.
With unity, strength, and love, we stand side by side — and we want the world to see us.
