27. Was she always that way?

Sound like "no"... otherwise you wouldn't seem hurt and surprised.

Maybe she needs to see an MD? How old is she?

Or... maybe she's grieving herself and is afraid to talk about it.

Or doesn't know how to talk about death, bereavement, et al and is afraid of saying the wrong thing to you.

Could be a combination of any/all of the above. But I can totally see your reaction.

My condolences on your loss, btw.
