If you ever wonder whether the people you meet online and never meet in person care about you - well, they do. Just found out someone I befriended on another forum died recently in a car crash. About the same age as me, same mindset, she had a daughter same age as mine. Never met her in person but here I am, shedding a tear because she's gone. I'll miss you, Deb.

I met a woman named Heidi online via a mutual interest in yoga. We met online when we were both going through a hard time. Arguably, she had it worse and handled it much better. Sadly, she later learned that she was dying of cancer. It took what felt like just a few weeks for her to go. I was very sad. The last thing she told me was that she loved me. She barely knew me, but I believe her. I grieved sincerely for her.
In other words, I agree with you, and understand what you're going through. Your loss is not diminished by lack of physical proximity. I'm sorry for your loss and for your friend's tragic death.
