Awww, they all fail us from time to time. She might have just been more aware of it than you are. Do you think it's possible that feeling angry doesn't hurt as much as feeling the loss?
If it were me, and I realize that not all therapists do this, I would schedule an extra session as soon as possible devoted entirely to the anger and the feelings behind it. That would clear the way for the goodbye session without interfering with what you need to deal with in the next session.
Just my two cents.
