From being on the side of you H here, which I think most of us are. Letting him know how dedicated you are at working on this would be a good thing. Even though you know that you will have those days that you want to leave let him know that this is very important to you and that you are trying every day to get back to being ready to move forward with the R. His back is probably his insecurity that maybe you arent dedicated to the M and that he is preparing himself for that. By letting him know that you are dedicated that will probably help some of those doubts in his mind. Anyway my 2 cents.
