Canon Question: Wilson during infarction & length of time known eachother

[photoash.livejournal.com]

Two quick questions based on the TV episodes:

1. Are there any clues or information on where Wilson was while House had the infarction and was in the hospital? (Does even Wilson helping him through rehab etc get mentioned?) I just re-watched 3 stories last night but didn't see any mention there.

2. Has it ever been said how long House and Wilson have known each other?

Thank you :) I'm a new fan and really appreciate the help in advance!

I put their meeting at being around 1992 or 1993. But that's just my interpretation of ambiguous information.

Wilson mentions that House has lived in his apartment for 15 years, which makes me think that he's been around for at least that long.

Wilson also knew about House's patient Esther Doyle, which was 12 years prior to the episode it was mentioned in, which also leads me to think they'd known each other at least that long.

Thank you so much for your reply!

This was exactly the kind of answer I was looking for :) someone who had put it all together from other clues!

BTW - What year is the show currently set in right now?

From Birthmarks, I gauged them at knowing one another for 17 years. But mind you, that's just my interpretation. I could be wrong.

And I have been before. I've taken information the show has given me and drawn conclusions, only to have them air another episode which basically contradicted what they'd established.

So I guess what I'm saying is, however long you want them to have known each other, is good enough.

Except putting them together in med school, which people seem to want to do and is basically impossible, due to their age difference.

:) indeed it seems like 15-17 years sounds reasonable giving everything else! That's what I wanted to know :)

Thank you!
