My best friend of over 40 year’s sister has cancer. I found this out after meeting someone on the street who told me. My friend has not told me and has had opportunity to recently. AIBU to feel upset by this?

This really isn't about you. Your friend would have shared when she was ready to. You're upset, she's devastated.

YABU it’s not about you.

When my husband was diagnosed I didn’t want to be overwhelmed with all the texts and phone calls.

As far as I was concerned, the most important people were him and me and the kids.

There were many people we didn’t tell until about a week before he died and that was his wish.
