Miranda (Season 6)

Miranda is a woman with breast cancer whom Sheldon met at radiation.

Meeting Sheldon
Miranda was at the hospital trying to get a snack out of a vending machine when it got stuck. Sheldon came up and helped her by using his money to buy a snack., saying he was having a bad night and the best way to cheer up is to cheer someone else up.

Radiation
She and Sheldon later met again when they both had radiation. She told him she had breast cancer as they waited. They didn't initially recognize each other, but at their second session together, she put together that he was the same man. She apologized for being rude when they first met in radiation, saying she'd gotten close to other cancer patients before and it hurt when they died. Because of this, she told Sheldon they could chitchat in the office, but it couldn't go beyond that. They talked during their treatment each morning. During one session, Miranda told Sheldon her cancer had metastasized to her brain and the radiation was just to buy her enough time to go to her niece's college graduation. One morning, she told him she was thinking of trying a new place down the street for lunch. Instead of accepting the unspoken offer, he told her to let him know how it was.

One morning when Sheldon went in, Miranda wasn't there. He believed it was because she had died. However, at his next session, he sat in the chair she normally occupied and she came out of the treatment room, saying somethings about car trouble. He was happy to see her and kissed her. He then said he wanted to see her outside the office. She reminded him that she was dying, but he said she wasn't dying today and they kissed again. ("I'm Fine")

Ex-Husband
