Idealization can indeed feel wonderful. It frightens me because, for me, it has a tendency to turn into disappointment and devaluation, which feels really awful.
I think you did a nice thing there, in emailing her. It sounds like she really does try very hard and be consistently there for you, as much as she is able. It probably was weighing heavily on her mind how you would be handling her absence...
Hopefully you can talk more when she gets back. Even if she doesn't tell you what happened... Talk about what different things would mean to you... Different losses in your life...
