I would say that while your feelings are valid, try to see if you can somehow overlook her behavior and be there for her.

I can only imagine what someone facing a terminal disease goes through, and to me that seems like a situation where it is perfectly fine to be selfish.
It sucks that you wind up being treated badly, but I do think if you go to the extreme of cutting her completely out of your life in her final months and skipping her funeral, you will regret it later.
It sounds like for most of your life she has been there for you. While I don't know the specifics of that "dark period" you mentioned, it sounds like she was there for you and willing to accept what may have been behavior that she found unexplainable and selfish on your part at the time. Now it's your turn to be there for her.
