[quote=Anonymous]What if you acted like she knew what she wanted in the first place and had a medical outcome she wasn’t happy with and didn’t expect. For example, if a friend went to the hospital for cancer and was told it could be treated with radiation, but left the hospital having had to have major surgery to save her life, she would be coping with a lot of feelings. You wouldn’t say “but it’s FINE because you didn’t DIE and LOTS of people have surgery so just focus on other things!” right? You’d talk about how it must be hard to come to terms with it and how surgical complications are a big deal and is there anything she needs for her recovery that you can help support? Don’t assume that because you have two children you are an expert in literally anything other than your own experience. [/quote]
