I agree with a lot of what has been said so far. Try to look at this situation as objectively as possible.
Because of the strong milestones in the relationship (loss of virginity, first non dysfunctional guy for her) the attachments run deeper then a normal relationship and objectivity is tough. This will make it tougher to let it go, but you should by all means, let it go. She gave you a pretty clear indication of her feelings. She was in the situation where she thought she had a limited amount of time to live and enjoy her time. Given this, she chose to break up with you for a chance to be with someone else. To me, this is a pretty clear indication of her feelings and where she stands on the idea of a relationship with you. I'm not trying to be cruel; I'm just telling you how I read the situation.
That being said, it sound like you have a wonderful new lady, who in your words is even better then the last one. It's time to let go of the past and live in the present.
