I think your email is ok...not horrible, not great. I think the less expanation you give him upfront, the better. Ex:

Hi Flowdad,

I agree with using XXXX of the line of credit to pay off part of my credit card. I also agree to not use the line of credit without your prior agreement.

The line of credit is secured against the equity in our home.

I am hesitant about giving up my access to a low interest rate line of credit and I would want financial advice before doing that. If it's important to you to change the line of credit access, within what time frame do you need an answer from me after I seek financial advice? This is something that I'd prefer to do in the medium term rather than the short term. In the short term I want to focus on moving forward with my career and life, helping S6 with his issues, and helping both children to cope with the emotional impact of this transition.

Try to share info on a "share only when asked" basis...
