IMHO i don't think it is bad to let this person help you at work if you feel this helps you till t gets back

about needing to go into the hospital though, usually when i need to go in, the need is immediate and so i don't understand how you can put that off even if t is gone? and H supports the idea? that is a good thing

granite, please do what you need to do to stay safe

sending tons and tons of safe hugs
