Your S5 sounds like my 7 year old - she has been talking about us getting back together for 3 years now, even said to me that she wanted the court to force us to get back together.
It's painful, but I think you're doing the right thing, not raising his hopes.
Wow, weren't you a hero, taking her to ER like that!? If I was her, I would have racked up a few more points in your love bank.
Most women love being taken care of, even if they are independent.
I'm sorry to hear about her health problems, though.
