Dating wtih terminal disease

To the OP, yes I absolutely would date someone w/ a terminal illness b/c as others have said, you truly can't help who you fall in love with.A few years ago, before I met my current husband, I dated a guy who was in remission from cancer.That said, I wouldn't trade a minute of the time I spent with him to spare myself anything I have been through.

When I was 21, my fiance died suddenly from an undetected congenital heart defect. I gave him cpr until the paramedics arrived, but he didn't make it.Would you date/marry someone who you knew would most likely die young?And the end would most likely not be pretty, meaning you could be caring for a very sick person for a very long time, who also has a 95% chance of being infertile.That said, I think watching him get sick and be in pain is probably harder on her in a way than it is on anyone else.Life is not neat and tidy, sometimes we just find joy wherever we can.
