etienne and timo

This is about something that can happen to everyone: You live a quiet life and suddenly you become seriously ill.
This happened to Etienne, who lived alone with his dog Timo.
Every day of the summer he made a trip with his bike accompanied by his little dog Timo.
Then he sat in front of his house and looked at everything what passed by.
Suddenly he wasn't there anymore.
Only a year later he was back, 40 kg's lighter.
He had survived a very serious illness and tried to pick up his normal life.
One day I decided to meet him and went to his house and started a conversation with him.
After spending several evenings with him, I knew his whole life and also had some photographs, taken during my visits.
