What Pip and I have in common

Pip and I both have an anonymous benefactor.  
His was someone who saw him through his education.
Mine was to help me to through my treatment.
I wouldn't have had the courage to start with the treatment if not for my anonymous benefactor.  When I sought help from my friends and relatives, she pledged to send some help all throughout my treatment.  And she never failed.
Pip met his secret benefactor.
I have yet to meet mine.  She said that we will finally meet when I get well.
And I look forward to that.
*Pip is the main character from Charles Dickens' Great Expectations.
