  • A very long time ago the sister of a friend was dying of leukaemia and before she went yellow and started to smell (her words) she wanted to have some nights out, have sex and enjoy what life she had left. Neither I nor her other friends felt upset that she asked us to be with her. In fact it was our privilege.

    I'm so sad to hear about your situation, you seem so strong throughout it all, don't forget that people need to comfort you through all of this too! :)

    Have you heard from him? I really hope you do tell him how you feel, love is precious and if you can have a chance at it, go for it! The last thing you want to be doing now is wondering 'What if?'

    I really hope you get your heart :)
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    GlasweJen - I didn't realise you were so ill. I'm so sorry to hear that. Fingers crossed that a donor (i'm assuming a donor is required) becomes available soon (in the best possible way).

    I would say go for it. Tell him the truth about the illness and that you like him. You aren't responsible for how he reacts to that, nor can you accurately guess how he will react or feel.

    All you can do is be honest.

    GlasweJen, have you heard from him since you told him? Hope you are both OK, thinking of you xxx.
    Good enough is good enough, and I am more than good enough!:j

    If all else fails, remember, keep calm and hug a spaniel!

    Give him some time GlasweJen. It may take him a few days to wrap his head around this, and compose himself again. He's a good friend to you, so he's probably thinking that he needs to get himself together a bit before talking to you again, so he doesn't put extra worry on your shoulders.

    I really hope it all works out for you.
