Yes, bleak Doc.
Depends if the chronic illness is something like asthma, which can be well-controlled (like mine) or a serious, out-of-control, difficult to manage illness like cystic fibrosis...
If well controlled: chronic illness.
If it is a serious, very difficult to function illness:
I'll take a short-term terminal illness for 1,000, Alex.
( sorry, I am a nurse...there is no easy answer here).
Would you rather get an expensive present from your loved one or money instead?
