I don't think that the information you were trying to impart is the issue. I just think your coworker is feeling overwhelmed and fearful and all the other emotions that we experience during this journey. And she may have been overly sensitive to your remarks because she was feeling so vulnerable. We all respond differently when in those situations...sometimes with anger.
