A photo of Thijs hangs on the wall of her home in Oud-Beijerland. Dressed in a swimming trunks, he stands on the beach, facing the water and his arms in the air. His mother shows us some more pictures. We see Thijs during a holiday, with a group of friends or just at home on the couch. He smiles in every photo. “You wouldn’t say he was an addict, would you?” she says.
