When I told my friend she didn't react to it, just moved on with a new topic.
Is it that normalized now that people aren't shocked anymore?

Some people don't know how to respond when someone informs them of a traumatic situation. So they change the subject and try to ignore what they can't quite deal with.

@Ciindy I experienced that myself when my wife became terminally ill. At first it bothered me. But then I realized that some people simply cannot deal with it.
