There's nothing in lore that would prevent a character from RPing someone who drains their own life force to heal others. As long as it's roleplayed effectively, it shouldn't bother anyone else.
Reading tone into text is pretty much never a good idea.
Also: No one here, as far as I can tell from re-reading the thread, ever said that it was impossible. They explained why the OP's justification for why she was doing so probably wouldn't work, and then explained how magic works in general because the OP specifically stated she did not know how the various schools of magic work in this game.
