Subject: Hello Friend
Hello,
As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me, because, I
believe everyone will die someday. My name is BORRIS OLGA I am a merchant
of Omani nationality and i have been diagnosed with Esophagealcancer
It has defiled all forms of medical treatment, and right now I have
only about a few months to live, according to medical experts.
I have not particularly lived my life so well, as I never really cared for
Anyone(noteven myself)but my business. Though I am very rich, I
was never generous, I was always hostile to people and only
focused on my business as that was the only thing I cared for. But now I
regret all this as I now know that there is more to life than just
wanting to have or make all the money in the world.
I believe when God gives me a second chance to come to this world I would
live my life a different way. Please respond back to me on
borris1477m@yahoo.com.cn
so i can explain to you better.
BORRIS OLGA
