Sex Advice for a Former Sicko

Savage Love Letter of the Dayby Dan SavageOriginally published on Jul. 21, 2005.I have a question I don't think you've ever addressed in your column. I'm a 32-year-old heterosexual female who was stricken with near-terminal cancer eight years ago. I've gone through every sort of treatment known to mankind (and had the gross misfortune of going through menopause at 27 years old). I was sort of a late bloomer when the disease took hold, and I had only had sex with one man, when I was 23 years old.
