Agreed
What will you regret more -- having your sister's feelings hurt or, once she's gone, knowing you never took the chance of being 'rude' and possibly helping her?

My mother-in-law is the opposite, anorexic to the point where I'm afraid to even give her a hug lest I snap a rib. The whole family (especially her sister) pretends nothing is wrong but my husband is terrified. He's decided that the best course of action is to confront her about it with whatever tactics it takes to get her to a doctor; denial hasn't worked very well for her so far and he says he'd rather his mother be angry with him than be dead.
