As one of few survivors of acute leukemia, Martijn tells the audience that, when fighting cancer, the true heroes are the ones who carry you. In time of need it are the caring mothers, matching sisters en fighting lovers that convey the true meaning of sharing by taking on themselves the responsibility of caring for you.

Every step that Martijn took, brought him closer to a brighter future. Until he was hit by acute leukemia.
