Bit of a long one but will try to condense. About 25 yrs ago I started chatting online (AOL messenger) to a woman in the north of England, we were both newly separated, it was nice to talk to someone going through the same, as time went on she told me she'd had breast cancer, ovarian cancer and other cancers, eventually she told me it had spread to her bra iin and it was in her brain stem. At the same time she'd been chatting to men, forming 'relationships'. By this time she was only popping up occasionally then not at all. I thought the worst had happened. Then through someone else I found out she'd faked her own death, to get away from someone who was getting too close. Turns out she met an American guy and ended up marrying him and was living in America. As far as all the UK contacts she had known went, they all thought she'd died years ago. She's still alive and kicking and living her best life in the USA with no sign of that pesky brain stem cancer, she's a walking talking miracle! So it does happen, probably more than we realise, that people do lie about things like cancer and do fake their own deaths to get out of situations. It's incomprehensible to me because I'm 100% honest and I just can't lie and don't realise the extent that some people will go to.
