Yes, that's an idea from Barrybran. Just putting a little hook in the water to see if he bites. Is there something you may have seen that might be of interest to him? Not anything 'deep' or 'self-help.' What about something interesting in his field of work or a hobby? Maybe you could look something up and contact him saying I came across this and thought of you...just wanted to share.
Co-incidentally, after following your NC conundrum, my H has emailed me this morning. Just thinking about a response and inviting any support people have to offer...
