That is the impression I got---the only time I heard her reference it was the morning she first talked about the cancer...and when she mentioned "the wedding was off", I definitely heard regret in her voice...
I haven't heard anything else about him since...I did hear her saying last week that she is going to Alaska sometime this month...on the same days that McCain, Graham, Collins, and Clinton are going to be there.
A coincidence that she was NOT happy about, BTW.
So, going by what I haven't heard about her fiancee, I would say he is gone for good...
Thanks for sharing what you know about Laura's situation. I'm sad for her if her fiancee did cut and run. I guess the up side is finding out before the wedding if someone can really be there for you through all of life's ups and downs.
