” Three words to define me, hmm, you're not making it easy for me, said Hans, well, I'm handsome! he exclaims with a laugh in his voice, he shows his crooked row of teeth, quickly closes his mouth and takes back what he just said, which happens a lot, Hans Rosen thinking he's funny then that it really isn't. One wonders if he ever thinks about what comes out of his mouth or if he just has a terrible sense of humor, shortly after, when I had just recovered from the first well thought out response, he bursts out "middle-aged", his facial expression shows him once again feeling very satisfied with his answer and affirms that it was good. Although he considers himself a middle-aged man, most people would call him old because he just turned 56 three days ago and his hair is not growing back to its dark blond color that 'they once had.

He wants this to be done as seriously as possible and his mother tongue will not fail him in this situation. “He is very grateful,” he explains, “without the new treatment, he would not have been there to see us last summer.” His voice is now softer and lower as he breathes deeply and speaks through his clasped hands as if he is praying. all this, Hans makes a final statement which I found the most interesting and which left the greatest impression on me. He proudly declares: “My wife is now my role model; your mother is a wonderful person. He looks into my eyes and I no longer need words.
