Hallo Jaqueline,

Onthaal aan OCF. Ik ben droevig dat u dit dier van een ziekte hebt moeten vechten, vooral op uw jonge tijd.

I hope that the above is the right translation for the following.

Welcome to OCF. I am sorry that you have had to battle this beast of a disease, especially at your young age.

I am not quite the same age as you smile but I hope you can find the information and sisterhood/brotherhood that you are looking for. I admire your strength and bravery and am really happy that you have found someone who loves the real YOU. Again, Welcome and I am sorry if I got the translation wrong.

Peace
Jack
