Oneofmany- I agree with you.
Goq- You said that this family member is familiar with your past. Since that’s the case, she definitely should not be minimizing your pain. Whatever reasons the other posters are coming up with to explain her response does not excuse her. The only reason I can think of in her defense, is that even though she knows your story, she doesn’t truly understand it, and therefore cannot empathize with you. That’s my opinion anyway.
As far as the reference to the holocaust, I do believe that was out of line.
Goq, I wish you the best.
