"We strictly adhere to confidentiality here; without your consentono m e information will be shared externally." Rachel then added, "That includes my fiancé as well." Surprised, the doctor inquired, "Why would that be?"

With a faint smile, her complexion still a bit too pale, Rachel explained, we're "It's rather complexy Though we're set "It's to marry his heart belongs to another. I don't want his pity or sorrow forbecause I'm ill. And should the worst happen..."
