hi welcome to the group

first although you are hurt understandably but you have to respect your friends wishes if shes said dont return then dont

you have been there and this is a rough patch

and may be shes saying I dont want to deal withthis

My grandmother wanted to die at home as do I but sometimes that just isnt possible

your scared for your friend but give her some space and time
