BTW...

For *both* terbear and Boomboom...

My neice was diagnosed with Fanconi Anemia at 11 years old, and at 21, the medication they'd had her on, quit working.

She was given a 5% chance of recovery through a bone marrow transplant, but as there is/was NO cure for Fanconi... she could still die from various other forms of cancer after the transplant. (Average life expectancy for a Fanconi patient is 19)

Through sheer *faith*... she not only survived, but has NO signs of any of the Fanconi (which even the doctors do not understand), drives her own car around all over the place, is engaged to be married, and it's been 6 years since the transplant.

yay teddybear hug

Now lets get those parties started dancing cheering dance thumbs up

applause applause applause EXCELLENT !! I'm glad you didn't tell her because if you did and she refused a second date you would never know if it was because of your treatments or just because you're not her type. Hopefully you'll see her again and then decide when....not IF.....but when to tell her. Good luck TB, I'm rootin tootin for ya.....in many ways.....teddybear

That's a good point, Monte and indeed the reverse is also possible.

Someone might find it very difficult to say no to someone who's going through a rough patch.
