I have to catch myself when I'm around him. I find myself falling into that protective mode of "how is he feeling? He probably shouldn't be doing this, you need to rest, you're working out too much, you need to eat more etc...."
Well, you're certainly right that you need to bite your tongue when you want to say stuff like this. It may be harder to control your thoughts. It would be different if IC weren't managing his health and taking care of himself. It sounds like he's on top of it pretty well.
