Lleh asked:


with her friends but discovers she has this disease. She could die any time. Or maybe she has so many months to live. She will finally decide she would rather spend her last months sailing even if it might speed up the progress of the disease. What kind of disease can she have that will allow her to feel well enough to sail at least for a few months and then end suddenly. I don’t want to linger and be helpless for a long time. Although I guess they could get her to a hospital in Australia or someplace to do her lingering if that is absolutely necessary. Any suggestions?
