I agree and wonder why those awful posts are allowed to stand. Terrible moderation here.
Show me these terrible posts, maybe they have been deleted and that is why I am missing them. I see nothing here that is awful. Just because someone doesn't agree with the OP or how she is seeing the situation does not make these awful or mean posts, they simply disagree.
If this is how you overreact to the perceived wrongdoing to the OP it is clear why you would over react on the perceived "awful" posts.
I have read your posts before and you were compassionate. Don't know what has gotten into you today!
Truffle, I promise you I am not trying to be purposely contrary, I really am not. I just don't see any post that were awful. I think and it is my opinion that you are over reacting a bit. Cancer is a serious thing I do understand her friend helped her through it but people have their perception of life changed many times going through it and I just don't think not informing her about a trip is something that would not even ping in my radar. We will have to agree to disagree.
Then you and I are polar opposites!
I didn't comment on this to upset you or the OP. Please give me the number of the post you find offensive or mean so I can look at them. I have read all the posts and didn't see anything I would consider mean or awful at all but I would like to see the particular post you are referring to.
I have seen people who have had cancer that before hand lived pretty regimented lives and very scheduled. The experience of going through cancer changed them because they realized how life short really is and that changed them. Some became more spontaneous and took advantage of things that came up on the spur of the moment. I can understand her friend was there for her but to call her out and say she could never look at her the same again, I find a little bit selfish. While the OP supported her it was the friend who went through probably the most jolting experience of her life and to go on a 2 week vacation with family after experiencing that without telling anyone is not something I consider anything terrible at all.
I agree with Noel, just the thought that the OP feels she could call her out is bizarre in my opinion and completely unwarranted.
The OP is not calling out her friend but having a discussion here. If you start from page 1 and read each post I'm sure the familar Irishgrl will resurface but maybe those awful posts were written by some of your friends. I have no idea what's up with you today.
***************************
You might want to reread the opening post. She did ask if she should "call out" her friend who had been battling cancer.
@Noel7 Sorry I misunderstood. Yes, I agree, I don't think it is a good idea to agressively inquire about it with her friend.

Oh please, now you are being insulting. If someone writes something that I find objectionable I am mature enough and not intimidated to say I find it objectionable. I certainly can have disagreements with friends and they are mature enough to realize a disagreement of thoughts is not something to get upset over and if they don't, I personally don't need friends that require complete agreement in a friendship anyway.
I read all the posts and I didn't find any awful or terrible that is why I asked you to clarify so I could read the post you were referring to and possibly see something I didn't see the first time, if you don't want to do that fine but don't insult me by saying I overlooked them because I was friends with them. That is ridiculous.
Nothing is up with me today. I would like to think I am compassionate but just because I don't agree with you in this instance don't try to make it seem like my body has been taken over by a dark force. lol!
She also did ask if she should call her friend out.

Irishgirl, I already repsonded to Noel about that. Sorry we are not in agreement on this issue. I really hate to read snark directed to the OP which there is plenty on this thread whether you want to admit it or not. Have a nice evening.

One other point that no one has mentioned....are the friend's daughter and sister even in the same town or area??? For all we know, they live 200 miles away or more!!

I didn't read what you did, that is why I asked several times for clarification on the post #s that you thought were the worst. Apparently you don't want to do that. You have a nice evening too Truffle.

I am not going to repost that ugly stuff and then have a firestorm of comments afterwards. It is so unlike you to be dishonest. Have a nice night again.

My best friend since we were in our early teens came down with pancreatic cancer a few years ago. I did everything I could for her. I introduced her to her husband years before and helped raise their kids.
I loved her like a sister. I never thought to question any of her behavior or that of her husband after she died. Or her children.
When people suffer or are trying to recover, they still need love and acceptance.
Truthfully, I can't understand anyone who does not get that, anyone who would consider "calling out" someone still in the throes of trying to stay alive.
