[Pal-dc] PAL-DC at the IGF 2015

[Baudouin Schombe]

Hi Stuart,


I just left the hospital after 22 days of hospitalization following a
hypertensive crisis.
I'm still recovering. Gradually, I'll go back to work but at a slower pace
on doctor's advice.
I think in one or two weeks, I will already be in shape.

Baudouin
