Not in a DB sense. You are reluctantly letting go and so are taking it as a sense of weakness rather than empowerment. You have to take the position that you are "allowing" him the time alone to get himself healthy.
"Yes, he is extremely overwhelmed. Dumping the business may not seemm like the right answer for him, but for me."
See? Thinking of yourself.
"It seems as though I cannot do much to make him happy."
EXACTLY. How many times do people tell you that it's not about you. This is his struggle that he feels like he needs to take on alone.
"Validated his list of "things to do" that he feels so overwhelmed with."
I don't know why you couldn't just let this go. That conversation was over and done with a long time ago.
"As he questions again, how I fill my day...knowing that I am not even able to assist my mom with household duties. (Little does he know its all I can do to make it through the day."
He asked a simple question. Don't read too much into it.
"Right now, I need to send him our daily report. As I am trying to be dim, is it BD'ing to end it by saying "I know how overwhelmed you are. I hope selling today helped. Please let me know if there is something else I can do?"...or is this pursuit?"
It's not necessarily "pursuit". It's rescuing behavior and enabling. Just let it go.
