What should I do?

Hi, having a good time sober, seen lots of tee total friends for coffee and cinema etc also exercise. One of those friends had been in AA for 3 years, we went for a walk and it was nice etc, said we'd go for a walk again. When she phoned to arrange the walk this week she said she went out for a meal and had a glass of wine, then preceded to say that the doctor has said they don't think she was a proper alcoholic-just numbing the feelings she had at the time (bearing in mind she has no idea I've gone tee total as I know I've got a problem). I felt even telling me this was obsessing about alcohol as we were just arranging a walk.
She been done for a DUI, lost her business, lose a part time job for turning up drunk, hasn't seen her son for a year as the dad thinks she unfit. She's a lovely lady-do you think I should tell her on the walk I think she's in denial in case she starts drinking more and more wine? Or will that make her want to drink?
Also thinking maybe this friendship isn't going to be healthy for me.
