I know this isn't what I normally post, but I don't have anyone I can talk to. I have an aunt that I've never met, and she and my uncle are divorced, and live in a different country. She has cancer and has been fighting for years. Today she was put on hospice, which means there is nothing else they can do but make her comfortable. I have no right to feel this way, but all I can think about is how I'll never meet my aunt. Of how I'll never meet the lady that my older siblings love. And as I sit in my room by myself crying I feel so awful. When my grandfather died I didn't cry, when my grandmother died I didn't cry. I didn't cry for the people I knew and love, but I cry for the one I've only heard of. Its not even been a day since she was added as my Facebook friend, and now she is dying and I'll never know the person behind the face. And here I am crying.
