Sensible to think, the body would try and fight what it considers to be a disease or infection of some degree. And if that fails, yes can often be fatal in some cases. Ehh well can not say I have come across any vampires. Or if I have they manage to hide their true nature well enough I was unaware. Perhaps it is because I have been with the affliction for several years. But...There are times I feel the beast and myself are one in the same. There are times it is difficult to know where one side ends and the other begins. To such a degree if cured, I think I might end up feeling as if I had lost part of my identity or something of that nature.
