16. “At this moment I feel a bit
down, but everything will be
alright because I believe in it.
Sometimes I just can’t
function properly, but I try my
best for the future. I really
want to assume a positive
attitude and maintain it. I
know I will have a hard time,
but I believe it’s worth it. I am
now with a person (Robert)
that is nice and knows a lot. I
hope you all understand that I
have endured a lot, but that I
have already changed
somewhat for the better.
Kind regards, Michael.”
