Suzan & Freek will perform again despite Freek’s illness. The artists share on Instagram that, in consultation with his doctor, they have decided to sing at several festivals this summer.
“We get so much energy from the interaction with you, so we have chosen to resume performing and still play at a number of festivals this summer,” Suzan & Freek write to their fans on Instagram. “Of course, all in good consultation with the doctor (who even thought it was a good idea).”
When it became known that Freek has metastatic cancer and will no longer be cured, the couple stopped all their work. They describe the past few weeks as a roller coaster and say they have thought a lot.
“It is so special to notice how resilient your brain is. The first week we only cried, as anxious as we were because you suddenly seem to lose control over your life and future. Now, two and a half weeks later, there is a little more sunlight and peace in our days every day.”
