Former minister Dekker makes himself heard after falling from a bicycle: ‘Falling and getting up, that’s life’ | Inland

“Going home today after more than five weeks in hospital and rehabilitation center. We can be proud of our great care in the Netherlands. Of course you don’t come here for fun. And how nice it is to sleep in my own bed again. But I will absolutely miss the sweet and caring people of the @Hagaziekenhuis and @Basaltrvalidation,” he continues his message.

The former minister broke fifteen bones in the incident: “Every day it gets a little better. That gives you courage. The fifteen fractions slowly but surely grow back together. And with some rest, the head also finds its way more and more.”

‘Support was overwhelming’

In addition, Dekker thanks for all the cards, gifts and flowers: “The support was overwhelming and felt like an encouragement to work on recovery. I hope to be ‘the old one’ soon – and yes, to get on my bike again.”

Woman arrested

Dekker was seriously injured in a fall from his racing bike in the dunes of Monster. A 42-year-old woman from Monster was arrested on suspicion of inflicting serious physical injury or simple assault resulting in serious physical injury.

A few days after the incident, the woman was “released pending the investigation”, according to the police. “The suspicion has not been weakened and will therefore have to appear before a judge at a later time,” a spokesperson for the The Hague police unit told De Telegraaf at the time.
