Hi Bluered. It sounds to me like he is having a little bit of insight and reaching out to you but I am no expert. I think you should definitely respond but keep it short. Be friendly but not too friendly or enthusiastic. Maybe some written validations... “Sorry to hear you are struggling right now. Treatments are ongoing (?). I am okay.” or something to that effect? I think he is reaching out so you should respond in some way that indicates the door is still open. I don’t know your H so can’t really say. There are probably some vets on here with some good advice. Sorry you are ill AND having to deal with this nonsense. Take care of yourself. (((HUGS)))
