I'm so glad to hear that! I could tell by your description of her that it would probably go well if you brought up. Can't wait to hear more, and I want to say that no matter what the end result is you speaking up in a way shows that you put her and her families well being in front of your looking like the good friend on the surface. It's hard sometimes to speak up, even when you have a close relationship with someone, because you don't want them to get mad at you. But to realize that them hearing the truth (in a kind way) even if they end up mad at you is more important then staying on their good side and not helping them, well that is just very selfless of you 
Basically, you put HER well being in front of the friendship that benefits YOU personally. That is a best friend if I ever heard of one for sure. I know how hard that is to do.
sometimes it can be really easy to get caught up in "look how accepting *I* am. *I* am such a good friend. Look at *me*" and lose sight of what true friendship, where you care enough to do things to help your friend even when its hard to do, or even when you friend may not want your help.
I lost a friend in high school because of bulemia. I shared with an adult what she was doing even though she asked me not to tell anyone. I tried to help her without telling anyone but it wasn't working. I would rather her think of me as a crappy friend who "ratted her out" then to be the friend who cared more about her thinking of me that way then I did about her own well being. It was hard, but it was the right thing to do. I did what was best for her, even though it meant I didn't get to keep my stellar "best friend who never judges me or betrays me" title. And really I wasn't judging her, but I'm saying even if she saw me that way I was okay with that if it meant a healthier future for her.
