VITALMATCH — CANCER PEER SUPPORT A cancer diagnosis changes everything. The treatments, the uncertainty, the conversations you never expected to have — it can feel isolating, even when you are surrounded by people who love you. VitalMatch connects you with peers who have walked a path genuinely similar to yours. Not just anyone touched by cancer — someone with your cancer type, your stage, your treatment history. People who understand the details, not just the headline. Most support communities match you by condition alone. VitalMatch goes deeper. Our algorithm compares you across six dimensions — cancer type and subtype, disease stage, treatment history, molecular profile, gender, and age at diagnosis — to surface peers whose experience closely mirrors your own. The result is conversations that are immediately relevant. You spend less time explaining your situation and more time exchanging the insights that actually help. WHAT YOU CAN DO IN VITALMATCH • Find your peers — Browse matches ranked by compatibility and connect with the people most relevant to your journey. • Message privately — Have one-on-one conversations with matched peers in a safe, private space. • Keep a journal — Document your journey, track how you are feeling, and look back on how far you have come. • Track your progress — Log treatment responses, side effects, and symptoms over time to spot patterns and stay informed. • Celebrate milestones — Mark the moments that matter, big and small.
