My Boyfriend Said Something Very Hurtful To Me

So, this year has been a struggle for my bf & I (I’m sure it has been for many people); not just with our relationship, but with personal issues the both of us were going through as well. About a month ago things, started getting hectic & we decided to go on a break, I definitely needed some time away from him.

One of the main issues I was going through is that I was having very bad anxiety & stress. To make a long story short, one day mom had went to the doctors & her physician told her she had to get tested for cancer. Once she told me that my stress & anxiety went through the roof. I was extremely scared, and didn’t know what to do, thankfully she is okay though!

I went to my bf for support, although we weren’t in the best place with one another. After I told him what was going on he ends up saying “well you know people aren’t here to live forever”. It hurt me a lot & that was when I had to get away from him. Of course I know that, but that’s not what I needed to hear at that time.

So, fast forward to now he has since apologized for the things that was going on, but not specifically for what he said, but trying to work things out. I brought up what he said only once & he knows now that him making that statement made me feel like he didn’t care, but he said he only said that because I was making myself more sick by stressing. I’m trying to get over it, so we can move forward, but idk how to, or if I even should. What do you think I should do?
