I'm so glad to read that you had a nice time away. Danielle Steele is one of my favorites as well. She writes about what is happening in the real world and I often wonder if she or someone she knows has gone through many of the experiences she writes about.
Sounds like your FIL may have either experienced a MLC or knew someone who had. He is a wise man. Your h can't keep running and trying to find a cure to repair the hole within himself.
As for your h, yes, he senses you are distant and will check in more. But, I'm glad he texted to see if you made it in okay.
The new year is right around the corner and I hope that it will bring you much peace this year.
Happy New Year!
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
