Do you guys think I really should drop all pretext and just tell her how I feel? I’m not into pity sex from my wife. But at the same time I do want her to know how I feel.
Well you know where I stand, but it's up to you. You'd never throw a Hail Mary in the first quarter of a football game, but when time is short and you're behind then sometimes it's worth a shot. If it's dropped then you chalk it up to "nothing ventured nothing gained" but if it's caught then it can be a huge game-changer.

Doc said this chemo is a total crap shoot. It could not work. It could work for 2 months and I’m gone. Or it could work for a couple years. Doc says it’s not too uncommon to see it working 10 months out. But we are in uncharted waters. It’s all a guessing game. He says he has one patient who has been on it for 5 years. They have no idea why it’s still working but it is. Total crap shoot.
Well at least it's something. It's a chance. If anyone can turn a small chance into a big victory it's you Oz!

How on earth could anybody ever date a guy like me. Who in their right mind would set themselves up for that?
Have you seen "The Fault in our Stars"? It's not a true story (although the main character is based on a real person) but it shows (realistically in my opinion) how people can fall in love even in the face of terminal cancer. When someone knows their time is short, they tend not to waste time playing games or putting their walls up. Honesty, virtue, character, vulnerability and emotional availability can be very attractive.
