[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You were in the wrong. She wanted to vent, not get suggestions. Let people deal with their pain and hurt their way, if it is causing you no harm[/quote]

Yes, she must have been going through rough patch for a while, people are usually having other symptoms for a long time before diagnosis.
It feels like you let her down when she really needed you. I don't know if you realize what it means to have a parent to be diagnosed with a sentence to death. It can make you go crazy in a way.. even if it is a temporary insanity,  most people forgive what is said in such times and most people are in so much pain they can not censor themselves, the grief is huge..

She truly did not ask for advice.. and often it is not w hat is needed at this time.. first comfort and understanding, lots of it, and a sholder to cry
and supportive arm.. and then eventually if the situation warrants.. but you nned to be really tactful.

You see.. there is this saying "I don't care how much you know, I want to know how much you care" Who knows maybe you have a history
of offering wrong kind of help to her and maybe that is why she called you out and you used it against her?

You gotta  some serious soul searching to do. You are not anywhere near done in my book.
