I don't feel you were really that rude, her attitude and excuses were uncalled for.
Call me crazy, but who gives that much information out about miscarriages and other sad things for any other reason to get sympathy when dealing with a commissioner (unless the artist and commissioner are friends and aren't on bad terms as far as the art goes).
I would hate to accuse her about lying of a miscarriage because that is a HORRIBLE thing to happen and I wouldn't wish that on ANYONE. But the way she said it just, I don't know, screams playing the sympathy card to me. Especially when it was preceded with "I'll skip dinner tonight because of you".
If she did experience a miscarriage, then my heart goes out to her and her lost child, but I am still unimpressed by her attitude.
