There’s nothing like swimming in the open water in such a beautiful lake surrounded by mountains. I love it. ❤️ taken in Lac de Longemer by @mark_fighting_ms

Moet je je voorstellen dat je hele blaas vol zit maar het lukt niet om te plassen, door de MS is dit nu al een paar jaar het geval. Vooral in de ochtend als ik opsta moet ik vaak heel nodig plassen zoals de meeste mensen. En nu met de #luja katheters van @coloplastnederland is het een fluitje van een cent.
Ben je benieuwd naar deze katheters? Vraag een proefpakket aan. Link in de bio.

Let’s talk about shit. 💩
I’ve been using the #peristeenplus from @coloplastnederland for a while now, and oh, what a relief it is.
I used to always have trouble passing number two, which was so frustrating. Sometimes I’d sit on the toilet for half an hour with no results, and sometimes my bowels would decide to empty themselves while I was walking the dog. 😭
I know a lot of people with MS know what I’m talking about.
Now, every morning I empty my bowels with the PeristeenPlus, and I can head out the door with confidence. 🙏❤️ by @mark_fighting_ms

Sunday Morning Pool Swim. 🏊‍♂️
Some days go better than others; today was a bit tougher than usual. Sometimes I have more energy, and sometimes a little less. But I did manage to swim 1,250 meters. 💪 After 1,000 meters, I thought, “Fuck it, I’m done,” but I have to challenge myself, so I dragged myself through the last 10 laps. It feels good afterward that I did it after all. Keep challenging yourselves, guys—keep fighting and don’t give up. You can do more than you think you can. 💪💪💪 by @mark_fighting_ms

Today, October 3, was a celebration day in my city, Leiden. We went to the fair with our friends and had a few beers at our favorite bar. It was an exhausting day, but it was definitely worth it. 🍻🥳 by @mark_fighting_ms

Today was the last day of the season at the outdoor pool. I accidentally set my watch to “open water swimming” instead of “pool swimming.” So now you can clearly see how many laps I swam. 😅 by @mark_fighting_ms

After spending a few days at home sick, it’s so nice to go back to the woods with Tessel. I’ve really missed this. I’m not completely recovered yet, but at least I don’t have a fever anymore. It was nice to be outside again. 🙏❤️ taken in Leidse Hout by @mark_fighting_ms
