We met in a Facebook group for people fighting cancer and we understood what each other was going through.
I am grieving for someone I never met.
Something about our conversation chimed — we were the same age — 32 and 34 respectively, with similar outlooks. She DM’d me a ‘wave’ and I added her as a friend. I messaged her to let her know I was thinking of her and sending love. She must have been inundated with messages — she was enormously popular — but she messaged straight back.
One of the longest chats we had was about dating. She mentioned one day that she wished she’d had a ‘big love’ before she died.She wondered whether she might still find him in time. We chatted at length about how we felt undateable as cancer fighters.
