Is that right? Did you really say that?

On my recent trip away when I met up with an old work colleague I filled her briefly in on my diagnosis, treatment, heart failure and long road to recovery and getting back to work and  how fantastic that  my recovery meant my husband and I are now back on tbe road. Etc etc. Her comment was...."but that was some time back wasn't it?"
I mean for me it feels like last month some days. 
I guess that meant...stop moaning. Lol no compassion ...I was flabbergasted..
