Well me and the family went out to eat. One of my family members told me another family member has a brain tumor. We were talking about it while eating and I was saying how I was worried and kinda felt like my family was avoiding telling me whether or not this person in fact had a tumor. Then as I got up I saw this family member sitting there. I felt embarrassed and sad. I am still worried about this family member and wasn’t gossiping or talking trash just concerned. But can’t help but feel I made them in comfortable or hurt their feelings. I don’t want to make things worse but I worry a lot and I know I have this issue and sometimes it can run people the wrong way what should I do?

Maybe just bring you and being there is enough.
Maybe this person will tell you .
Maybe you can cook something nice for them one day or offer to meet them or if you are well enough take them for a outing or make sure they have your number.
We have a friend of my bf who has had such.
My boyfriend is a good friend to him and we invite him for dinner, bought milk for him…
And my boyfriend is there if needed
I think and I have prayed for him .
Hope you will feel better about it.
I have reacted badly to such things in the past.
I seem “airy “ and spacey and do not come down to earth do to say which may not give the comfort.
Good wishes to you and your fAmily member.

I’d do nothing. It was just slightly embarrassing maybe. Don’t feel bad about it.
