Is this behavior normal? Do I deserve it?

I started to work on digital marketing for the first time ever last year. At first my clients were very happy with my work. I struggled a lot because I had to learn as I went and felt very little support from the agency and my boss who knew I was no expert (she also happens to be my friend. I know, big mistake). Then this year started and I gave the clients what I thought was a good metrics report showing them that our strategy was working. They didnt think so and started changing and changing my plans. I had told them months earlier that i’d be moving to a different country in may and though hesitant, they agreed to me working remotely.

I had told them months earlier that i’d be moving to a different country in may and though hesitant, they agreed to me working remotely. My team made a few mistakes (nothing major) and the clients started getting more and more demanding and angry. Finally, they decided they didnt want me working remotely anymore. This happened a month and a half before my departure. Before leaving I had a rhinoplasty. We agreed I’d be gone for a week and then come back to finish april and deliver the account to whoever would take over. Well, the day of my surgery the clients had a “secret/ urgent meeting” with my boss and my team that I still know nothing about and suddenly all the programmed content went full stop. I asked what is going on but I’m still in the dark. I don’t know if I’m already fired or if I will get paid even. I feel miserable and like a failure. I think this is shitty of them but maybe I deserve it? And yes I know I should be focused on my recovery but I’m an anxious person, ok? Please don’t be mean. Thanks.
