When friendship humor about health becomes complicated by real illness

My best friend and I have this tradition of sending each other ridiculous health articles and memes but since they started dealing with chronic pain, I don't know if our shared mockery of wellness culture is still fun for them or if it feels like I'm making light of something that's now genuinely affecting their life.
