Try to use the sitch an opportunity to work on showing how strong and positive when you can be when having to deal with a challenging situation. Try to be upbeat and positive in spite of what's going on (get some scope jokes lined up).

And then shower some appreciation and compliments (not in a pursuing way, but a nice and friendly way) so she feels good about having helped out.

Think of something she might need and offer to help with that.... and if she says she doesn't need it just say, "Okay, but if you do need help just let me know. It's nice we can help each other out."

This will promote good will, and that's poisitive regardless of what's going on.

There is no arriving, ever. It is all a continual becoming.
