I would take this all as a positive. He is trying to do his best to take care of you and to put your mind at ease. Might not be the way you want it to be, but he is trying to do what he thinks is right. Also in regards to his statement regarding your missed trip. Instead of seeing it as a "downplay" of your concerns, perhaps he sees you very capable of overcoming this challenge. Faith in your abilities. I could be wrong, but I don't think so. Think it over.
