Personal message from our CEO 👇
I am writing this message from the emergency room of the Curaçao Medical Centre, with my leg elevated and confined to bed, awaiting surgery. A few days ago, I had an accident at sea and broke my ankle and fibula in several places. Bad luck and a reminder that I’m not 18 anymore. However, the upside is that I now have more time to share my thoughts.🙂
That’s why I want to start with the most important thing: thank you! For your trust, your patience, your questions, your critical eye and, above all, for the warmth of the thousands of messages we continue to receive. These provides us with direction, meaning and motivation to continue.
I am also proud. Proud of my team, which has really grown this year, and proud that we have never succumbed to the temptation of quick marketing. This year, we once again chose what has always driven us: honesty, empathy and quality. We feel this in every message we receive each day – stories of relief, peace, progress... and sometimes even real miracles.
But the biggest gain this year? That’s still our community. Our partners around the world who work with the same vision, and you – the person reading this – who sometimes give us a glimpse into your life, your concerns, your recovery or your hopes. This is what moves us each and every time, and it keeps us humble and grateful.
For the new year, I wish you much personal growth. Just like the h**p plant: strong, resilient and always reaching for the light. For now, we’ll be right here; for your questions, concerns, doubts, but also for your successes.
Before I set sail for my surgery, on behalf of the entire DNH team, I would like to wish you bright days, a clear head and a healthy body. And don’t forget: be kind to each other, it costs nothing and there is no better medicine.
With warm regards and gratitude,
Lars Opdam
